Stage Description

The first stage of the Madrid Way is an urban and peri-urban route that moves away from monumental Madrid. The route is a pleasant stroll through the north of the city. It's a day to enjoy the tranquility of the countryside. Arrival in Tres Cantos, a modern town in a natural setting, is a charming end of stage. It's a transition day, marking the beginning of the Camino.
