Geography of Madrid

Madrid's geographical limits are set by a natural triangle: on the western side is the Central System (the Sierra de Guadarrama mountains); the south represents the Royal Site of Aranjuez; finally, the eastern edge of the triangle comes from the rupture of the fluvial river basins.

Practically all the province is located between 600 and 1,000m above sea level, with the highest point being 2,430m and the lowest being Alberche en Villa del Prado at 430m. Other considerable heights are the Ball of the World (la Bola del Mundo), in Navacerrada, at a height of 2,258m and the seven peaks, in Cercedilla, at 2,138m.

As in much of Spain, spring (March-May) and October are the best times to be in Madrid. The city has a fresh feel to it and isn't too overrun with tourists, and the weather is generally agreeable. If you love to party, visit during May for Madrid's biggest fiesta.

The hills of the Sierra de Guadarrama offer a welcome escape. There are tiny pueblos (villages) to explore and plenty of walking trails for the more energetic. The village of Manzanares El Real is home to a 15th century castle; and nearby trails lead to gorgeous freshwater pools. The area around the mountain town of Cercedilla is popular with hikers and mountain bikers, and skiing is possible on the pistes of Navacerrada and Costos.
