Villamanrique de Tajo
Kilometer 21.
The path runs through the fields of the Valle stream and ends on the road from Santa Cruz de la Zarza to Villamanrique de Tajo. The route turns to the right, passes over the Tajo bridge and continues through a pleasant riverside grove towards the Fluvial Park and the urban complex of Villamanrique de Tajo, an orchard town with beautiful whitewashed facades at the intersection of the Tajo Natural Trail, the great cycle route that begins in the Montes Universales and leads to the border of Portugal. The route runs through the streets of the town and continues along the path of the Estremera Canal. The gravel bikes fly along the firm roads in the extensive plain of the Tagus plain. The lane circulates between the large agricultural farms and the esparto grass slopes along a curious stretch of small slopes and ends in the streets of Fuentidueña. The route track passes through the church square, the Fuente Salobre and crosses the A-3 highway through a pedestrian and cyclist crossing in the Perchel neighborhood. And a new fast section begins along the Estremera Canal to the detour of the 40 Days Train tunnels, marked with a yellow arrow from the Uclés Way. The connection with the old railway route is along a path of about one hundred meters of difficult cyclability on the slope of the valley until the first tunnel, which is sunken and must be passed on the right. The path has markings from the Camino de Uclés and finally enters the road box through an arch-shaped tunnel, then there is another longer tunnel and immediately the next one, artificial light is not needed in any of them, the surface is good except in season of rain that may have mud inside.
