El Atazar

Highlight • Settlement

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.

El Atazar

Highlight • Settlement

Typical town of slate houses in the northern mountains of Madrid. Originally it was a group of shepherds' huts and corrals that ended up being a place of permanent residence. For centuries its inhabitants cultivated cereals, vines and pastures for the 5,000 heads of varied cattle that inhabited their lands. With the construction of the reservoir, many of these farms were flooded. Today it is a magnificent enclave for outdoor activities, it is a crossing point for the Senda del Genaro and the start of many walking and cycling routes around it.

Puebla de la Sierra

Highlight • Settlement

The municipality of Puebla de la Sierra is nestled in a boxed valley through which the Puebla River runs within the Sierra del Rincón, cataloged by UNESCO as a Biosphere Reserve. The landscape is dominated by wooded masses with large expanses of pine forests and large areas of native oak groves, the scrubland being made up of jarales, lavender, heather, holm oaks and Pyrenean oak.

Puebla de la Sierra

Highlight • Settlement

Puebla de la Sierra is one of the black towns of Madrid, in the border area with Guadalajara. Black towns are so called because of their slate-built houses. This town is especially picturesque and its location on the mountainside, in a privileged setting, makes it an unforgettable visit.

Beehives and Bees

Highlight • Natural

Be careful when passing through this point since less than 100m there are more than 50 hives and depending on the time of year it is dangerous to approach. The bees attacked me twice directly to the neck and I think I have never gone up so fast with the adrenaline rush of fear and the sting that I took.
