On the southern edge of town (on your right as you enter) stands the once majestic Convento Franciscano de Nuestra Señora del Soto. It is a declared ruin now so you cannot see the inside, but the exterior retains a certain charm.
The camino between Villanueva de Campeán is almost entirely through the countryside along well-marked paths. The entrance to Zamora is short, and the first real glimpse you will get of the riverside city is from the mighty Río Duero.
