At the entrance of the town there is a comfortable car park to leave vehicles for the two or three days that it may take to return in bikepacking mode to the Ayllón massif through the Somosierra pass.

Puerto del Cardoso

Highlight • Mountain Pass

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.
