The convent is very beautiful and has a huge elm tree at the entrance, but unfortunately it is dry.

Crossing the Arroyo arriving at Arroyomolinos. On days without much rain, you can cross on horseback without any problem, and the water barely covers the tire. Be careful, the water is sometimes very disgusting...

Nice place to make a stop, gain strength and climb "the little hill" on the way to the ball

Path that runs between beautiful fields of cereals and olive trees northeast of Esquivias. Beautiful, especially in spring, with its bright green. But after the rains there can be mud, prepare your boots just in case.

The route to the Teja fountain is a fairly flat route, without much unevenness, and it is one of the most popular destinations for runners — ideal for training. The fountain is an old cattle watering hole where you can take a break. Next to the fountain is the Hermitage of San Isidro, built as a cave, taking advantage of the mountainside.
