Sierra de Madrid
La Sierra de Guadarrama, commonly known as the Sierra de Madrid is the collection of mountains surrounding Madrid from the north, which was the reason why the Spanish capital was founded, by the Muslims, to survey the Sierra itself! It is part of the Sistema Central, where it sits between the Sierra de Gredos and the Sierra de Aylon.
Hiking in la Sierra de Madrid is our main walking activity in Spain.
