surprises await us, and there is even a bit of legend in this marvellous Navalmedio Valley.
Most of the route is on a forest pathway, so the trail is not complicated at all. Only the ascent to the abandoned mine requires a certain level of physical fitness, but you may opt
out of this section if you wish.

Details of the Trail
We will make several background-talk stops along the way. One of them will take 25 minutes, so we can also have a snack and rest a bit.
There is only one section that is slightly more complicated due to a considerable difference in terrain elevation within just 15 minutes. The rest of the trail is very gentle, with hardly any gradients.
Important information
We are in a mountainous area, so the use of suitable footwear for the terrain (trekking or mountaineering shoes/boots) is compulsory. It is also necessary to carry at least one and a half litres of water or other valid hydration. There are no fountains along the route.
It is recommended to bring warm clothes and a mackintosh. Don’t forget to bring sun cream and a hat. It is advisable to carry some food in your backpack: fruit, nuts, chocolate… whatever you need to boost your strength at any given moment.
Some of our activities in Madrid can be combined with each other. For more
information, please contact us.
Meeting point
Car park at Embalse Navalmedio.
