Baños de Montemayor

Baños de Montemayor (Spanish pronunciation: [ˈbaɲos ðe montemaˈʝoɾ]) is a spa town located in the north of the province of Cáceres, Extremadura, Spain.

The village became a spa with the Latin name Aquae Caprense when the Romans built baths in what it was the middle of Vía de la Plata, although hot springs were known even before then.

In addition, the bridge called "El Cubo" over the river Baños', has also a Roman origin, remains of part of the arch and the pillars are conserved.

[5] The geography of Baños is very uneven since it is surrounded by mountains of 850 to 1,200 meters high with abundant forests of chestnut trees and other native species.

One of its main characteristics, derived from its situation at the head of a valley, is the abundance of water, finding numerous natural sources and springs both within the urban area and in the environment.
