Fuenlabrada walks

Madrid has all the trappings of a great capital city: museums and masterpieces, including Picasso's famous Guernica, beautiful avenues, the royal palace, parks and economic dynamism. But paradoxically and fortunately, it hides other treasures, village atmospheres, charming neighbourhoods, and the beautifully redeveloped banks of the Manzanares River. Madrid is full of energy and is as lively at night as it is during the day. But in the morning, it will reveal itself to runners, who will almost feel as if it is there just for them.

This is a simple walk in one of the most beautiful areas of the Sierra de Guadarrama, beginning and ending in the historical town of San Lorenzo de El Escorial. The route is designed to go past the old snow wells that were created in the 17th century and go around the Pico de Abantos.
