A “Forest Bath” enjoying the nature that surrounds us

The “Forest Bath” is a Japanese tradition that consists of enjoying nature in a different way, connecting with the natural environment using all our senses.

In addition to the proven health benefits (reduction of stress, anxiety, insomnia, reduction of depressive moods…) it is a fantastic way to promote ecological awareness of natural spaces.

From La Posada Real del Buen Camino we propose you to discover more about these “Forest Baths” and the possibility of enjoying this type of activities in the Natural Parks that we have near the hotel.

Doing a stage of the Way of Saint James along the Silver Route

Through Villanueva de Campeán runs the Way of Saint James along the Silver Route. You can feel like a pilgrim for a day by walking part of this Way of St. James in the certainty of physically treading the same path that pilgrims walked for centuries and in many sections the same secular stones.

And, to complete the day, what better than to enjoy its wide gastronomic offer, with products such as lamb, cheeses, vegetables, sausages and, of course, wines.

Visit a traditional livestock pasture

One of the most loved plans by our guests and an experience that we always recommend to all those who visit us.

A visit to an extensive livestock farm, where you can see the cows with their calves, the flocks of sheep with their lambs and the horses that will come up to you to pet them and give them some treats.

Visit an astronomical observatory in the middle of nature

During your nocturnal visit, you can observe the mountains and craters of the moon, the rings of Saturn, the clouds and moons of Jupiter, nebulae inside which stars are being born, star clusters with hundreds of thousands of suns… and many other celestial objects.

A visit to one of the many artisan cheese dairies in the area

A charming plan in Zamora perfect for all lovers of culture, tradition and, above all, the gastronomy of our area.

Visit artisan cheese dairies where you can follow the whole process of making cheese from Zamora, from milking to curdling and maturing the cheese in its different stages.

Hiking routes discovering the nature that surrounds us

The local goverment has signposted a new hiking route which starts in Villanueva de Campeán and runs through the villages of Corrales, Peleas de Abajo, Gema, Casaseca de las Chanas, Arcenillas and Zamora.

The route is nearly 30 kilometres long, 29.15 kilometres to be precise, and is perfectly signposted, with information panels at the main monuments and buildings of interest along the route. For example, at the start, in Villanueva de Campeán, the Monastery of Nuestra Señora del Soto, the ruins of what was once a Franciscan convent, built in 1406 and declared an Asset of Cultural Interest (BIC), is documented on a panel.
