The route

A quiet climb in the Sierra del Rincón, the most remote corner of Madrid: you set off from La Puebla de la Sierra, a slate village at the bottom of the valley, and climb the narrow road that winds between oaks and pines up to the pass. Paved all the way, with linked bends in the second half and very little traffic on weekdays.

Water at the village fountain and the odd bar open at weekends; there's nothing at the top. This is mountain country: in winter there can be snow or ice, and in autumn the woods fill with colour. From the pass you can descend towards Prádena del Rincón or La Hiruela and make a loop through the sierra.
