03/01 SATURDAY ⛰️🥾 HIKING TRAIL: SIETE PICOS 🏔️ THE DRAGON LEGEND

### 🥾 \*\*The Dragon's Ring \*\* 🏔️ **Walking the Siete Picos Trail means walking along the back of a great Dragon**, or so the legend goes. For several years now, this trail has been named "The Dragon's Ring", linking its circular route around the seven peaks to **the legend that tells how this rocky formation was created when a dragon lay down and turned to stone**. We’ll depart from Navacerrada Pass heading toward Alto del Telégrafo and return via the Schmid path. 🚶‍♂️ Although the trail **poses no major technical difficulty**, it does involve a **moderate elevation gain**, requiring **good physical fitness** and enthusiasm for enjoying the effort. Each step brings us closer to the finest views of the Sierra de Guadarrama. 💪 A perfect adventure for those seeking **nature, mountains, and personal achievement**, all in one day. Come conquer the seven peaks! 🏞️✨ At the end, we’ll head to a craft brewery *deep in the heart of the Sierra de Guadarrama 🍻 to savor local flavors.* \#\#\# 📝 Technical Details of the Trail 📏 **Distance:** 12 km ⬆ **Elevation Gain:** 450 m ⬇ **Elevation Loss:** 450 m 🌲 **Trail Type:** Loop 🟡 **Difficulty:** Moderate **Includes:** Certified Mountain Guides Pre-activity consultation First-aid kit Photographic report \*\*\* \#\#\# 🚍 How to Get There? 🚗 **By Car:** * 🕒 Departure: 10:00 AM (please arrive 15 minutes earlier) * 📍 Navacerrada Pass Parking: https://share.google/lYJPFgOns8M2PK0lu * 🚗 If you’d like to share a ride and split fuel costs (€5 per person), please post your meeting point and available seats in our WhatsApp group. * If you don’t have a vehicle, please let us know when reserving your spot via WhatsApp—we’ll do our best to help you reach the meeting point. * * **Public Bus (Line 691 from Moncloa Interchange):** * 🕒 Departure: 8:15 AM to catch the 8:30 AM bus * 📍 [Moncloa Interchange](https://maps.app.goo.gl/nZa38kCqNya5MDkN6) * ⚠️ Buses may fill up—arrive early * 💵 Free with Youth Transport Pass or C2 (for zones B1 and beyond, a fare supplement applies) * 💵 Without pass: €3 per trip \*\*\* \#\#\# 💸 Price and Reservations * 💵 **Activity Fee:** €15 (cash payment on site 🤝) * 📱 **Reserve Your Spot:** Message us on WhatsApp at **675 473 278** * ❗ **No one will be confirmed without prior confirmation** * 🔴 **A minimum of 5 participants is required for the activity to run.
