Legend of the Peña del Cid

Curiosity · Petrer, El Vinalopó Mitjà, Alicante

Image of Petrer, not of the place itself.

Tradition tells that El Cid, riding Babieca and finding himself cornered by the Muslims, cleared an impossible leap over the void in the range that now bears his name, leaving the mark of the feat kilometres away.
