Tips from the Community
A very pleasant pass to climb up the Puebla de la Sierra side. To do this, you have to access it from Robledillo, with very steep ramps to warm up, and a few kilometers on a narrow and bumpy road. The views and the route are totally worth it. Avoid weekends, especially busy hours, as motorcycles, and especially cars, can spoil the party a bit, as I say, the road is very narrow. There is a fountain at the lowest point between Robledillo and Puebla, and another one when leaving Puebla de la Sierra. They are the only two points where you will be able to fill your bottles "for free".

A beautiful Black Village in La Sierra Poble in Madrid. Clean, well-kept, with good hospitality services, it is the beginning and end of multiple routes, but it also has a very extensive exhibition of outdoor statues of all types nearby.

The Collado de la Fragüela is a hill that can be reached by the M-130 as soon as you leave Robledillo de la Jara towards Puebla de la Sierra and at the top we will find a large antenna.

A beautiful town in a privileged location, between the Lozoya River Reservoir that bears the name of El Atazar, and the Sierra Norte of Madrid and Guadalajara. The surrounding landscape is extraordinary.

Located on an old Muslim fortress reconquered in 1085 under the reign of Alfonso VI. The first testimonies of the castle come from the hand of Alfonso VII, who gave the properties to the dukes of Mendoza. These, in the s. XV, they would build a castle fortified by seven different towers, built with brick in the Mudejar style. The Marquis of Santillana and, later, Juana de Portugal and her daughter, Juana la Beltraneja, would reside there. During the War of Independence, the French would use the fortress as a barracks, fleeing from it in 1813, destroying it in their escape, then beginning its deterioration. It currently has a bullring inside and has been closed for restoration since 2016. It is a historical gem that should not be overlooked if you visit the Madrid town.
