The Chair of Philip II is a famous granite viewpoint in San Lorenzo de El Escorial, near Madrid. Legend has it that King Philip II used it to view the construction of the Monastery of El Escorial. However, experts believe it was actually an ancient Celtic altar, possibly used for rituals. Today, it's a popular hiking spot with stunning views of the monastery and its surroundings.

The Mirador de las Canchas is one of the most outstanding panoramic points in the Sierra de Guadarrama, located in the Barranca Valley, within the municipality of Navacerrada, Madrid. From this viewpoint, located at an altitude of approximately 1,754 meters, you can enjoy stunning views of iconic mountains such as La Maliciosa and La Bola del Mundo, as well as the extensive pine forest in the valley and, on clear days, even the city of Madrid in the distance. The route to reach the viewpoint is of moderate difficulty and begins at the La Barranca parking lot. The route, approximately 9 kilometers round trip, runs mainly along a forest track with a gradient of approximately 350 meters, making it accessible to most hikers. During the ascent, you will cross lush pine forests and pass near landmarks such as the Fuente de la Campanilla and the remains of the old Guadarrama Sanatorium.

A crossing and meeting place for many hikers heading in different directions.
