My tip“One of Madrid's quietest villages; services are few, so bring your food. The mountain road is narrow and winding.”
A small, remote village at the far north of the Madrid mountains, in a green valley surrounded by mountains, with houses of slate and stone. It has “Valle de los Sueños”, a trail of art sculptures in nature, and it lies within the “Sierra del Rincón” biosphere reserve.
What to see
Houses of slate and stone · the Valle de los Sueños with its sculptures in the forest · the small village church · the river and mountain trails · the Hayedo de Montejo nearby
Moderate effort, needs a car
An hour and a half from Madrid by car, with no practical public transport. Easy to moderate paths; half a day.
