마드리드 최고의 그래블 라이딩 코스

저에게 세고비아 다리(Puente de Segovia)를 건너는 것은 마치 16세기를 산책하는 것과 같습니다. 후안 데 에레라(Juan de Herrera)의 절제된 디자인과 모든 것을 견뎌낸 강력한 화강암 석재가 마음에 듭니다. 특히 해 질 녘 불이 켜질 때 왕궁(Palacio Real)과 알무데나(Almudena)의 전망은 장관입니다. 또한, 물 분수와 정원이 있는 주변의 마드리드 리오(Madrid Río) 지역은 산책하기에 완벽합니다. 마드리드에서 제가 가장 좋아하는 다리입니다!

A truly impressive castle with a beautiful castle garden. Unfortunately, we didn't have time to visit it.

A historic bridge used by the Almorox train line

The view of La Maliciosa from the bridge is spectacular. A short break before starting the climb to Alto del Enebrillo.

Be careful because the recent rains have caused a new landslide next to the previous one, and the road was closed by forest rangers.

Manzanares el Real Castle, also known as Mendoza Castle: Built in 1475 by order of Diego Hurtado de Mendoza, 1st Duke of the Infantado, on the site of a former Romanesque-Mudéjar church. Its architecture is Isabelline Gothic, with a square floor plan, cylindrical towers, and an octagonal keep. It served as the palatial residence of the powerful Mendoza family, who even established a literary court there. Declared a Historic-Artistic Monument in 1949.
