Urban Running Circuit

Route

The circuit, with an approximate distance of 10 kilometers, begins at the Castle of the Mendoza family and allows you to walk or run alongside the most iconic landmarks of Manzanares El Real: the Castle of the Mendoza family, the Church of Our Lady of the Snows, the Old Bridge, the Old Castle, and the Hermitage of Peña Sacra, while also passing through natural areas such as the surroundings of the Santillana Reservoir, El Tranco, and the Cañada de los Toros.

For jogging or walking

The circuit has also been adapted to offer two shorter routes of 3 and 5 kilometers, which can be enjoyed either for jogging or simply walking.
