Majavilán Stream Spring

Highlight • Rest Area

This is undoubtedly the source with the richest water in the Fuenfría valley. Whenever I pass through here I drink as much as I can. Generally, there are people from the town who come in their cars to load bottles to drink at home.

💧 Drinking Water

Highlight • Rest Area

A small oasis in the middle of the climb. It had been a while since I had found sources of drinking water in the area and this one is especially fresh and rich.

Poets' Viewpoint

Highlight • Viewpoint

Perhaps the most beautiful of those we find on the ascent to Fuenfría, receives its name from the poetic contests that Luis Rosales held there.

Mirador Vicente Aleixandre

Highlight • Viewpoint

The Vicente Aleixandre viewpoint, or Poets' Viewpoint, offers an unbeatable view of the entire mountain range. Cercedilla lies at our feet, the Bola del Mundo peak rises above, and some verses are engraved on the rock to commemorate the recitals that were once held there.
