Hiking

The Senda Ortiz maintains a path halfway up the slope from Las Vueltas de la Barranca to the site of the old Guadarrama Hospital, which has now completely disappeared. On the esplanade where the building was, there are two information panels and good views of some mountain villages. Long before reaching the viewpoint of the old hospital, in the clearing of the Canto Gordo pass, a narrow, stony path starts to the right and climbs up the slope of the forest to the Las Canchas or La Barranca viewpoint.

Beautiful path, with a good stretch of very technical descent, to stretch your legs
