Hello fellow travellers! My name is Cristina, I work as an environment technician and I love exploring my country, Spain, although I have had my fair share of international experiences. On this occasion I would looove to visit the Alto Tajo natural park with all of you :) Keep reading if you want to experience the off the beaten path rural Spain. Here are the main features of the trip: The main idea is to travel by car from Madrid to Peralejos de las Truchas, a small village in the heart of Spanish' countryside and located at the very entrance of Parque Natural del Alto Tajo, and stay there for two nights in order to explore and experience the Natural Park (hiking, of course). The last day we will visit Sigüenza, a very nice town with several beautiful medieval buildings. I expect to find like-minded people with a passion for nature and curiosity about history, and guide them through a couple of hidden jewels in rural Spain. What is included in the price? - Accommodation in a shared room in an apartment in Peralejos de las Truchas - Transportation by car - 2 dinners, 2 breakfasts, 1 lunch pack (all self-prepared) Looking to know more details? Feel free to send me a message!

Trip Itinerary
1
Peralejos de las Truchas
Day 1-3
We will sleep here for two nights, right next to the Alto Tajo natural park. It's a small village with lots of nature around to enjoy. Eating in the local restaurants is also an option. The hikes we will be doing depart from here or very close by. Here is a more detailed description by date: 24th March: I'll pick you in Madrid in my car (or rented if mine turns out to be too small). That's the reason why I am only accepting 3 passengers. We will drive up to Peralejos de las Truchas, where our apartment is located. We will have our own kitchen, so I can teach you how to cook Spanish tortilla or any other Mediterranean dish you'd like. 25th March: we will hike through the beautiful Parque Natural de la Serranía de Cuenca, or, as we locals call it, "Alto Tajo". I will ask in advance how fit you are in order to select a route everyone is comfortable with, but keep in mind you should be willing to walk for a few hours. Also, I am a biologist, so I'll prepare a small exercise so that you get to learn a little bit about the wildly rich Spanish nature, along with some lunch packs for us to eat. After the hike, we will have some free time before dinner, cooked once again by me. 26th March: wake up early for a small route through Alto Tajo! This one will be less lengthy, again, depending on how everyone feels.

Sigüenza
Day 3
On our way to Madrid we will visit Sigüenza, one of the main medieval towns no tourist guide will tell you about. Trust me, its impressive Gothic cathedral and its Castle, dating all the way back to the 5th Century, are worth the visit. We will eat in Sigüenza as well. After that, we will come back to Madrid to have one last beer together :)
