Garabitas Road
Highlight (Segment) • Trail
Ascent stretched by asphalt.
Garabitas played a fundamental role in the Battle of Madrid during the Civil War, since it was one of the two points where the national side established artillery batteries to bombard the capital together with the Cerro del Águila.
The Cerro de Garabitas was conquered by General Varela on November 13, 1936 and resisted all republican attacks, including the "Durruti Column", until Franco decided in Leganés to stop attacking Madrid directly.
The hill also serves as inspiration for several legends, such as the one that says that it is the place from which the souls of Madrid depart for heaven before leaving their city. When meeting here, the souls released that "From Madrid to heaven and, in heaven, a little hole to see it".
