My tip“The tower stands in an open field outside the village and can only be seen from outside; combine it in one tour with the Venturada, El Berrueco and Arrebatacapas towers.”
A cylindrical Islamic tower from the chain of towers that carried the alarm by smoke by day and by fire by night from the Somosierra pass to Talamanca de Jarama.
Easy to reach, needs a car
By car to the edge of El Vellón, then a few minutes' walk across an open field to the tower; the ground is level dirt. No services and no shade; cafés in the village.
Address
Atalaya del Vellón, El Vellón
