If you are thinking of starting hiking, we leave you with some fairly simple routes to start enjoying this adventure and making the most of your Spanish learning experience.
- The Ecological Path of Canencia:
This is a 6.5km hiking trail with a great variety of flowers and trees. If you are looking for a route to start with hiking, without doubt this is the best one. So when you finish your Spanish class, put on your slippers and go for a walk!
- The Schmidt Road:
Without a doubt one of the most beautiful. A totally indispensable route. It belongs to Madrid despite the fact that it has some sections belonging to Segovia. It's totally awesome. Connects the port of Navacerrada with the town of Cercedilla. It has little difference in altitude, so it is very good for beginners. However, it is recommended that this be a one-way trip only.
- San Juan reservoir:
You've probably heard of him in the summer. But we offer you another way to enjoy this landscape in the other seasons of the year. It has a low difficulty, but keep in mind that it can be a bit long, so we recommend that you make it one way. Along the way you will find panoramic views and even conditioned viewpoints, so that you can enjoy it properly.
