The Hervidero Waterfall is a double waterfall on the Guadalix River, nestled in a rocky canyon and surrounded by riverside vegetation. It can be reached via a flat and easy 7 km (round trip) route starting from San Agustín del Guadalix, ideal for family hikes.

The traverse between Peñalara and Claveles, or vice versa, requires skill and good footwear. Wet rock, and especially snow or ice, can make it much more difficult. Roped up is advisable in the worst conditions.

Charca Verde is one of the most iconic and beautiful spots in La Pedriza, in the Sierra de Guadarrama National Park. It is a pool of crystal-clear, emerald-green water, formed by the Manzanares River and surrounded by large granite boulders.

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 Monastery of El Escorial was built by King Philip II in the 16th century to commemorate a military victory and serve as a royal pantheon for the Habsburg dynasty. Designed by architects Juan Bautista de Toledo and Juan de Herrera, it is characterized by its sober, Renaissance style. Today it is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
