Nice place very close to Miraflores de la Sierra. It is a small reservoir with a small recreational area with benches. I recommend taking a walk around, especially in autumn, when the leaves turn reddish. It has parking nearby.

October 23, 2022,Cuerda Larga 2022 (AVISO: en esta edición el recorrido fue diferente por mal tiempo)

A very cool route although this year the "real" route of the long rope was changed due to bad weather. We went up from Miraflores to Puerto de la Morcuera, from there we crowned the Najarra and turned down. 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻

Route from Miraflores to the port of Morcuera. Later, continue a bit along the path that goes up to the Cuerda Larga. The landscape does not disappoint and has areas of somewhat demanding terrain.
