The Puentes Viejas reservoir was built on the Lozoya River and is part of the water supply network known as Canal de Isabel II, which is still in operation after several centuries in use. It is also a panoramic site with very nice views.

Buitrago del Lozoya Historic Town and Walls

Highlight • Historical Site

It is a unique town that preserves its complete wall, the only one in the region and declared a National Monument in 1931. Don't miss its Gothic-Mudejar style Alcázar with a clear Arab influence. A storybook and postcard town like few others.
