Image of Oliete, not of the place itself.

Cultural park covering about 160 km² straddling the provinces of Zaragoza and Teruel, established in 1995 and recognised as a Natura 2000 site. In the stretch near Oliete, within the Andorra-Sierra de Arcos comarca, the river Martín carves gorges through limestone formations, among which the Los Estrechos canyon stands out. The park brings together notable archaeological heritage: Palaeolithic settlements such as the Cueva de Eudoviges, the Iberian settlement of the Cabezo de San Pedro de los Griegos and a dinosaur footprint site, as well as the rock art complex of the Ruta de los Estrechos, declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
