Spain Panoramic view of Toledo and Alcazar de Toledo
This is probably the best view of Toledo at sunset, depending on the month of the year the sun will set just behind the Alcázar or from the side. But in any case, it is the best composition if you want to achieve a panoramic view of Toledo, surrounded by the river and the sunset in front, since in the "Ronda del Valle" the sunset will always be on a side out of angle.
Photography Tips
Comfortable shoes and a tripod. If it has rained, be very careful as you have to briefly climb some rocks and you could slip.
Travel Information
The access is not signposted but it is very simple. Just stand on the outside of the Alcántara Bridge and you will see a restaurant. Just behind the restaurant, there are some stones through which you can climb in 30 seconds to the spot. If you have a drone, you must know that the city it´s under CTR control and this location it´s just in front of a military base (absolutely forbidden to fly any drone).
I would choose the highest possible point on that terrain since it gives you the most zenithal view of the river surrounding the city.
