Near Madrid, Spain lies the dazzling El Tiemblo in the province of Ávila, Castilla y León which gets colored in bright reds, oranges and browns during the fall. Join me to discover all these wonderful colors on this one-day hike.

For this adventure, we’ll meet at Nuevos Ministerios early in the morning and ride through the Pantanos Road up to the town of El Tiemblo. There, we’ll take a bus to the Regato parking lot and begin our hike. We’ll explore the Yedra Gorge and ascend towards the Cruz del Tornero for a breathtaking views of the autumn tainted sea of chestnuts. Along the way, we’ll find the oldest chestnut tree in the area, known as the Grandfather Chestnut (Castaño El Abuelo), and hundreds of other enormous trees that give this place a fairytale-like atmosphere.
