San Ildefonso - Pértiga del Ramal del Hoyuelo - September 5 2020 Map

This hike made me feel like I was very far from Madrid. A very green habitat compared to the other side of these mountains. This is a relaxing walk through a tall forest. There is a river you can easily cross at the bottom of the hike. If you slip off of a rock, don’t worry, the water is ankle deep. Depending the season you’ll see cows on the way. The land is very humid, so be prepared for flies during the summer months.
