In this beautiful square there is a fountain but unfortunately it had no water. However, nearby there are supermarkets where you can buy water or food. Good place to take a break.

The bridge over the Alberche River is a key crossing point that allows you to cross this important body of water in the Sierra Oeste de Madrid area. From it, you get pleasant views of the river and its riparian vegetation, making it a notable spot on the route.
