View of the vast Sierra de Francia. Countless church trees grow in the area around Madronal.

Beautiful quiet roads through the hills.

The climb up this narrow valley is a delight, especially on days when there is not much traffic. The views, the sounds of nature, the vegetation, the aromas of rockroses and other wild flowers allow us to almost forget that we are going uphill for a good part of the journey :-D

Las Mestas is a charming village in the Las Hurdes region at the foot of the Sierra de Francia. You must stop at the natural pools of Charco de la Olla to take a bath or cool off on your cycling route or see the small Church of Nuestra Señora del Carmen built with typical stone from the area.

Nice 12 km ascent from the Puentes del Alagón to San Miguel de Valero. Almost 500 m of ascent, so it requires form. More than half of the climb passes next to the banks of the Río de las Quilamas.
