Mountain passes of the Sierra Pobre region of Madrid. 12-Sep-2026, 9:30

Road route from Prádena del Rincón climbing the passes of El Cardoso, La Hiruela and La Puebla (one or both sides).

The total distance is just over 50km with about 1200m of accumulated elevation gain, covering only 3 of the mountain passes. Adding the fourth pass brings the total to just over 70km with about 1700m of accumulated elevation gain.

Perfect route to get started in the vice of door-hopping.

On the fly, it's easy to do just one of the passes, two, three, and even add the fourth if you still have the energy 💪🏻
