Full description
There are some things you have to do at least once in your life, and driving a buggy through the heart of Navacerrada is one of them.
Break with the routine and live a 1 hour experience of pure adrenaline and nature. Drive your tandem buggy through the village until you reach the picturesque La Barranca reservoir. Share this easy level adventure with your partner or family, and be impressed by the brutal views of La Maliciosa and the Bola del Mundo in the heart of the Sierra de Guadarrama in Madrid.
What we will do
Our expedition starts at the meeting point in Navacerrada, Madrid, where we will meet 30 minutes before the booking time to get everything ready. After a brief check-in and a talk about the safety and operation of the vehicle, we will familiarise ourselves with the controls of our two-seater buggies. Once we've adjusted our goggles and checked that everything is in order, we' ll start our engines to leave the hustle and bustle behind and head into the jewel of the Sierra de Guadarrama.
The route takes us through the picturesque village of Navacerrada, enjoying its mountain architecture as we head towards the area of La Barranca. The real journey reaches its climax when we enter this area of the Sierra de Guadarrama, a place famous for its peace and quiet and for being surrounded by lush Scots pine forests. It is an impressive visual transition that will make us feel in the purest heart of the Madrid mountains.
One of the key points of our route will come when we reach the La Barranca reservoir. Together we will border this small and picturesque mountain reservoir, a place of great scenic beauty where the mountains are reflected on the surface. From this privileged enclave, we will enjoy brutal views towards the peaks of La Maliciosa and the emblematic Bola del Mundo, making a tactical stop to capture the moment with incredible photos and breathe in the fresh air.
On this section we will combine tracks with scenic back roads, allowing us to feel the power of the buggies with a smooth ride before we make our way back. We will pass through the village again until we reach the original meeting point. In total, we will live 1 hour of an expedition that perfectly mixes the adrenaline of driving a buggy with the serenity of the most attractive natural landscapes of Madrid.
