Upper Tagus

This is a linear, 8-day pedaling route for advanced cyclists. Amazing ride between the cities of Teruel and Sigüenza (Guadalajara), crossing one of the highest and most depopulated areas of the country, watershed of numerous rivers that flow into both the Atlantic ocean and the Mediterranean sea.

After leaving the province capital of Teruel, we cross the Albarracín mountain range to reach the sources of the mythical river Tagus, the longest of the Iberian peninsula. From here we follow its course, entering the Upper Tagus Natural Park, and we reach the city of Cifuentes. Then, and after crossing the reservoir of La Tajera, we climbed to the highlands that lead us to the gorges of the river Dulce, that we pedal up to the medieval town of Sigüenza.
