The path goes through a beautiful grove of large oak trees, passes the Umbría de la Raya hut and climbs up to the pastures of Parada del Rey. On the left-hand side, on the Peña de la Iruela hill, a group of huddled and solitary Pyrenean oaks stands out. The most unique aspect is the huge branches that scatter and dance in all directions. La Parada del Rey is a traditional resting place for the herds that roamed the mountains, a place rich in pastures to feed before facing the hard journey of the Altos de la Morcuera. The cattle trails have also been used as communication routes, and numerous current highways have even been built on them. The Cordel del Puerto de la Morcuera is on the old Camino Viejo from Madrid to El Paular, also called Camino Real de Rascafría, and the carriages and cavalry used the meadows of the Parada del Rey to rest on the journey through the mountains. On one occasion, Isabel del Borbón, wife of Felipe IV, was traveling from Madrid to the El Paular charterhouse and the royal entourage stopped at the resting place at Peña de la Iruela. At that time the name of the municipality was Porquerizas de la Sierra, since the 13th century, when it was repopulated by Segovian farmers who were dedicated to raising pigs. The queen was contemplating the landscape and was impressed by the amount of flowers that grew in those meadows, immediately ordering the name of the town to be changed to Miraflores de la Sierra. At that time, the mountain village exalted the local place name and the area of the pastoral glen is called Parada del Rey.
