Popular and all year round fun hike with plenty of spots to stop, snack and enjoy beautiful views. You have the option of taking a wider easier path, versus a steeper narrower path. We really enjoyed the steeper path. Dog friendly. Easy parking in town. Reward yourself with a cerveza by El Escorial on your return.
