Soto del Real Cycling Area

Highlight • Rest Area

Soto is one of the epicenters of cycling in the Sierra de Guadarrama. From here you can access many roads and tracks that lead to the mountain itself. Its leisure and restaurant offerings have made it the origin and end of long days by bike and beers and after-meals reminiscing about the adventure.

Plaza de España, Rascafría

Highlight • Settlement

Rascafría is a beautiful village in the heart of the Sierra de Guadarrama mountain range. Located in the Lozoya Valley, it boasts an ideal location for cycling between the Morcuera and Cotos mountain passes.

Its main monument is the Monastery of Santa María del Paular, nestled in a privileged setting blanketed with pine and oak forests. As its name suggests, it is one of the coldest villages in the Madrid region.

Canencia Pass

Highlight • Mountain Pass

The port of Canencia is one of the most pleasant to climb in the Sierra de Guadarrama. On any of its slopes, both from Miraflores de la Sierra and from the town of Canencia, the slopes are not too steep and the landscape is incredible.
