Patones Gorge Trail

Highlight • Trail

This road, which connects the towns of Patones de Arriba and Patones de Abajo, was one of the only accesses to the slate town until the 1930s, with the construction of the narrow road. Through a limestone and slate ravine pierced by the Patones stream, the geological and landscape value of this path is indisputable. Being today one of the best ways to access Patones de Arriba due to restrictions on the use of private vehicles in the town, it is worth walking through this place and being enchanted by its colors and views.

Shark Trail

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Tricky trail. Rocks protrude from the ground like sharp shark teeth. It has a steep slope after the middle of the path, and at the end several steps. As fun as it is difficult ... to complete it is to pass the level.

Cancho de la Cabeza Summit

Highlight • Summit

This peak is one of the most visited in the northern mountains due to its accessibility and its spectacular 360º views. From here you can see: To the north the Atazar reservoir and the Sierra de Ayllón, to the west the Sierra de La Cabrera and, on a clear day, the Peñalara peak, which is the highest in Madrid, to the south you can see the entire plain of Madrid and part of its skyline.

One of the funniest sections of the Sierra de Norte de Madrid. The whole area is full of perfect mountain bike trails suitable for cyclists new to trail riding, some steep and technical, others like this one full of fun in incredible scenery.
