El Muyo is a beautiful town, district of the municipality of Riaza, in the province of Segovia. Known as a ''black'' town due to the slate constructions that give that dark and characteristic color to the village. Although not many people live there, on weekends it is more crowded by sports and nature fans and you can enjoy a good atmosphere. There is a bar at the entrance to the town with a terrace and gardens where you can have a drink. Also noteworthy is the 14th century church with many details of art and historical treasures.

It is part of the so-called black villages of the Ayllón Mountains, so called because of the colour of the buildings, mainly built of black stone and slate, a material that is abundant in the region and on which the village is built.
