Monastery of El Paular

Highlight • Religious Site

The history of this monastery can be grouped around three main axes: El Paular-Cartuja (1390-1835), El Paular disentailed (1835-1954) and El Paular recovered for monastic life (1954-until today).
huerta_paularThe foundation of the Charterhouse of Santa María de El Paular dates back to 1390. The House of Trastamara granted it great privileges and defrayed the costs of the works throughout the reign. Juan I began to erect the first Cartuja de Castilla, where there were already some hunting palaces that are cited in Alfonso X's Book of Falconry and a Hermitage called Santa María del Pobolar. This is how the first Cartuja de Castilla was built and the sixth of the Carthusian foundations in Spain.

Umbría Stream

Highlight • River

The Umbría stream is one of the main tributaries of the Lozoya river in the Angostura Valley. The route follows the marks of the GR-10 along the banks of the river, enjoying the natural environment of the torrent, there are birches, rowans, willows and riparian scrub creating different environments in each season of the year. The humidity of the environment favors the presence of mosses, colored mushrooms and species associated with cool environments.

Mirador de los Robledos

Highlight • Viewpoint

The Mirador de los Robledos occupies a privileged place in the Lozoya Valley, with views of the splendid meadows of Rascafría and Alameda del Valle surrounded by peaks and pine forests. In the meadow of the viewpoint, a monument in the shape of a menhir dedicated to the Forest Ranger was erected in 1977. And next to it, an orientation table with a compass to locate points of interest. "To see you have to look and you have to know", says the inscription.
