This is a fantastic place to go hiking on weekends. There's a gravel road which takes you all the way up to the lookout points which have fantastic views down the valley all the way to Madrid in the distance. Walking is easy through the pine forest and suitable for all levels of fitness. Ample parking is available free of charge. In the area is an amazing zip line park for the kids to have fun called 'De Pino a Pino' check the website for prices. The place can be busy on weekends.

Beautiful park for a great day hiking. There is a bus you can catch from the center of town and just hike back down the river or up farther into the mountains. The paths were well maintained and the area is gorgeous. Make sure to pick up a map as some of the paths can be hard to follow or don't have a ton of trail markers. A little difficult to get to but worth a day trip from Madrid for a great hike.

Incredible place, loads of access points for hiking and trekking, beautiful scenery, only a couple of hours by bus from Madrid and totally worth it! We saw a goat, a few lizards, some birds of prey and many insects. Some trails are easier than others but there is a website that can help with that. You'd need about 4-5 hours to reach any peaks. Beautiful views, perfect place to spend a day!

Magnífico espacio donde disfrutar de la naturaleza, entre pinos, rocas, ríos..Hay diversasa rutas y senderos que parten desde el párking de arriba. El problema es que en fines de semana o fiestas hay saturación de personas y cierran el párking superior, con lo que, como me pasó a mi, o esperas a una furgoneta que pasa de tarde en tarde (gratis pero de poca capacidad) o subes andando por la carretera unos 4 Kms (recomiendo ir muy temprano para poder subir el coche y aprovechar más el tiempo). Lo que no tiene nombre es que abajo no te dejen subir el coche y cuando llegas andando arriba te encuentras, como en mi caso, los parkings semivacios. Es algo que comuniqué al bajar al personal de control de entrada. Parece que no eran conscientes de ello o, en cualquier caso, "eran unos mandados" como me dijeron. Hay un chiringuito arriba donde tapear o comer y también buenos restaurantes en los alrededores.

We stopped quickly at the park on the way from Bilbao to Madrid. It's pretty easy to find parking, there are lots of signs for it on the road. We found a place and just walked around for about 30 mins. There were bulls walking around freely and we were able to get some nice shots!

Lugar increíble a media hora de Madrid ideal para pasear o hacer deporte solo o acompañado!!! Senderos bien definidos pero poco claros en algunas zonas, con pocos carteles indicativos!!! Muchísimos saltos de agua, pozas, cascadas... La piedra está súper pulida por la erosión, cuidado que resbalan bastante, mejor llevar un calzado apropiado para andar sobre las piedras!!! El baño está prohibido, aunque habría que ser muy valiente para meterse con el agua tan fría del deshielo! Amplias zonas de parking en varios tramos, depende la ruta que se desee hacer, recomendable ir pronto para poder aparcar bien!!! Multitud de vegetación entre jara, pinos, robles... Y gran diversidad animal, águilas, buitres, carneros... Recomendable para pasar todo el día y escapar del estrés de la ciudad!!!
