View of the Caves Cliff in Tielmes

Highlight • Cave

From the Tajuña greenway you can see many cliffs and cliffs of gypsum and limestone excavated for thousands of years by the river. At the height of Tielmes, you can see some cavities that are machine gun nests, lookouts, trenches and bunkers from the civil war built by the Republican army to contain the advance of the national troops on the capital.

Tajuña Greenway

Highlight • Cycleway

Here the railway line runs very close to the Río Tajuña, which gives it its name. While the surrounding valley slopes are dry and barren, the river valley is unexpectedly fertile and lush. Poplars swaying in the wind, olive groves, wide fields - you don't expect so much green here.

Junction of the Tajuña Greenway and the Tren de los 40 Días Greenway

Highlight • Cycleway

Crossroads between the greenways of the Tajuña and the 40-day train. The route of the second was a branch of the Tajuña that was intended to connect with Levante. Today this greenway crosses various cultivated fields, mainly olive groves and cereals, and connects various towns in the southeast of Madrid.

View of Ambite

Highlight • Viewpoint

In the municipality of Ambite there are:

Palacio de Ambite: built in 1623 by the Marquises of Legarda, it is in a 17th-century baroque style. It is located on the outskirts of the town, next to a large thousand-year-old oak.
Monument of the Eyes: built by Federico Díaz Falcón, it consists of three arches, crowned by a roof made of Arab tile. Dozens of tiles made in Talavera de la Reina stand out.

Chapel of the Holy Children

Highlight • Religious Site

This beautiful hermitage, located next to the Greenway, is dedicated to the Holy Children, patron saints of the neighboring town of Tielmes, but also of Alcalá de Henares, whose cathedral is under their patronage. I leave the story in the link. A good place to take a break in the middle of the Tajuña Greenway

Tajuña Greenway Section

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

The old passenger and freight train that connected Madrid with the towns of Las Vegas del Tajuña ceased operations in 1953. Today its greenway is a route conditioned for bicycle tourism on the old layout of the train rails.

This route, which begins in Arganda del Rey, runs between olive groves and other cultivated fields passing through old stations and traditional structures such as old lime ovens.
