This is a route for people who want a little more exercise during the tour. This route introduces us to the Tormes River and the Roman Bridge and what they all meant for the city. But not only that, we will also see monuments of the city such as the Palace of Monterrey, the Casa de las Conchas (shell house), Clerecía, the two cathedrals and we will finish in front of the facade of the historic building of the University. During this tour we will not enter the monuments.
