Desfiladero del río Ura

Estrecha y serpenteante garganta rocosa abierta por el río Mataviejas en las estribaciones más occidentales de las Peñas del Carazo. Cerca del río Arlanza, a la localidad de Ura se accede por un desvío de la carretera que comunica Covarrubias con Quintanilla del Agua. A Castroceniza, en el otro extremo del desfiladero, se llega desde la carretera de Covarrubias a Santo Domingo de Silos.

Encinas, fresnos, chopos, sauces y mimbreras. Martín pescador, mirlo acuático, buitres leonados, alimoche, águila real, halcón peregrino, cernícalo vulgar y búho real. Jabalíes, corzos, tejones y gatos monteses. Presenta una longitud cercana a los cinco kilómetros, y su tramo más destacado se encuentra en las inmediaciones de la bella localidad de Ura. La mejor forma de recorrerlo es seguir el antiguo camino que conduce de Ura a Castroceniza.
