Itinerary description

The route was originally planned to go from Cerceda to Hoyo de Manzanares and to explore the tracks going down from the top of Balcon el Diablo towards Hoyo. As it turns out I spent a large part of the track hiking instead of cycling. From km 13 to about km 17 the terrain was too steep or too rocky to allow for much pedalling. In the end I opted for the shortest way back as I was completely exhausted.

Nevertheless its a fun route. The view from the top is amazing in all directions and there's plenty of challenging and flowing singletrack winding between the big granite slabs too keep you entertained.
