I really enjoyed the day in nature a bit of sun a bit of snow and a bit of rain. The day visits various places from mountains viewpoints, castle, cities and a river. Our guide Javi explained everything in detail and did his best so everyone enjoyed the day despite the difficult weather conditions. This tour was the most diverse I did in Madrid and you can really enjoy the nature that the surroundings of Madrid has to offer.

5 out of 5 stars

the daytrip was excellent. we had a very nice guide which told us all we need to know and took us to see and hike through stunning scenery. for those who are scared there will be too much walking, we did not walk much, probably less than 2hours in total (not straight but 30min there and 30min here). really worth the money!
