Arte y naturaleza se aúnan en el Camino de las Raíces, un lugar donde el viajero puede adivinar las huellas de la memoria colectiva de un pueblo, La Alberca, y un territorio, la Sierra de Francia.

Esta ruta circular, con inicio en la localidad abulense de La Alberca, atraviesa espacios humanizados en los que se reflejan las raíces de una cultura ancestral, las creencias y el imaginario de sus habitantes.

Las obras de arte de varios artistas sorprenden al caminante y le invitan a mirar de nuevo hacia las raíces y también hacia el cielo, enseñándole a observar lo que le rodea de otra manera.

Entre bosques de robles y castaños llegamos a la Ermita de Majadas Viejas, no sin antes, haber pasado por el Montón de Cantos y por las piedras donde se representa la Loa en la romería de la Virgen.

Retomamos el camino para llegar a la Laguna y a la Ermita de San Marcos, consolidada como un ejemplo de raíz conservada, para desde allí, regresar a La Alberca.
