The ride
Roll out of Miranda del Castañar and let the road carry you past the castle before the Parque Natural de las Batuecas y Sierra de Francia opens up around you. The Río Francia keeps you company, then it's on through the Espacio Natural de Las Quilamas and along the Río Alagón. All 76.2 km are paved, with 1565 m of climbing to keep the legs honest, and the loop brings you back to where you started.
