Montejo de la Sierra

Highlight • Settlement

The surroundings of this Madrid town are an extraordinary place to go on a bike route, especially during autumn, due to the abundance of deciduous trees.

This port serves as an ideal baptism for those who begin to climb ports: easy, without traffic and with charm. But it also serves as an aperitif before other ports such as La Hiruela or La Puebla, with which you can easily connect to do much harder routes. Although it only reaches 1,358 meters, it is a natural border of very different landscapes, with oak trees on one side and pine trees on the other, and a fantastic gateway to the cycling paradise that exists on the Madrid-Guadalajara border. It serves as an indication that it is the necessary previous step to reach the famous Hayedo de Montejo.
El Puerto del Cardoso via El Cardoso de la Sierra is a climb in the Castilla-La Mancha region. It has a length of 10.2 kilometers and a climb of 277 vertical meters with a slope of 2.7% on average, which implies a difficulty level of 134. The top of the climb is located at 1353 meters

The Chinese Wall of the GU-194

Highlight • Bridge

This section on the GU-194 highway in the province of Guadalajara is known as the Chinese wall among cyclists due to its resemblance to the Asian giant that meanders over bare slopes. It has several quite steep sections and a beautiful viaduct that crosses the Jarama River.
