Hiking Highlight
Recommended by Vegas y Alcarria Madrileña
Location: Villar Del Olmo, Campiña, Madrid, Spain
The Chozo de los Castaños is magnificent, it stands alone in the middle of a barren field and has looked proud and haughty since 1827. Inside you can see the architectural model of a construction in the form of a circular vault with a vent at the top. In front of the hut there are remains of corrals and other livestock buildings. On a nearby hill are the remains of the Calera del Camino de Orusco, with a circular plan and half invaded by vegetation. Nature is slowly reclaiming spaces and domains.
