    Dating between the 9th and 10th centuries, this defensive tower of Arab origin was part of a whole network of watchtowers built in the Sierra de Guadarrama. Also known as the El Berrueco watchtower, its main objective was to monitor the valleys from above to prevent possible Christian incursions.

      LA ATALAYA PATH: After passing a watering hole next to a rest area, the Atalaya path crosses the M-133 or El Atazar road until it reaches the Torrepedrera Watchtower, from where you can enjoy an area of exceptional nature, with mountains of junipers and a beautiful panoramic view of the mountains.
