Traveling is something we would do every week, at all hours. We love discovering new places and now that the period of Renfe commuter train discountswe want to do beautiful getaways of those with which we disconnect from the city And they are not too far away.
Just like that, close and beautiful, the destination that we bring you today and that is the town of Castilla y León most visited by the people of Madrid. A bet less than an hour from Madrid, which is perfect for our first autumn getaway.
El Espinar, in Segovia, the ideal destination for a getaway
Located in the Sierra de Guadarrama we find El Espinar, the most visited town in Castilla y León by the people of Madrid according to a study of rural club. And we are not surprised that he occupies that first position. is barely one hour from Madridwhich makes it tremendously accessible, and it is surrounded by beautiful nature in which to lose ourselves.
The Plaza de la Corredera, with its 19th century horse chestnut trees, the Church of San Eutropio, El Palacio del Esquileo, El Convento de Santa Isabel or La Ermita del Cristo del Caloco invite us to discover the history of this town. The hermitage of Nuestra Señora de La Losa, from the 13th century, is one of the oldest buildings in the town, but it is outside of its cobbled streets and its houses where we find that haven of peace that we need.
In its surroundings we can get lost among waterfalls, bushes and moss, and walk along its simple routes of hiking among Scots pines and oaks. Places like Peña La Casa and Las Barrancas y la Panera, two of the best known and most visited natural settings in the area, are perfect for enjoying long walks in which the clock stays at the hotel.
Double room at the Hotel Rural La Viña (Adults Only) from 126 euros per night.
It is also an ideal destination if we have animals and enjoy nature like us. Being so close to Madrid, we can go spend the day with our furry ones (always carefully when carrying them in the car).
