Stage Description
This stage continues through the southern metropolitan area of Madrid, on a flat and transitional terrain. The landscape is a mix of urbanized areas, industrial complexes, and the first fields of cultivation. It's a day to continue moving away from the big city. The route passes by towns such as Parla. Arrival in Griñón, a smaller and quieter town, offers a more peaceful end of stage, with a village atmosphere that contrasts with the bustle of previous days.
The stage between Getafe and Griñón is a continuation of the exit from Madrid's metropolitan area. The profile is completely flat, but the landscape remains a mix of urban and industrial environments, with some open fields. The road passes through the city of Parla, one of the major municipalities in southern Community of Madrid. The route seeks out quieter roads to advance southwards. Arrival at Griñón marks a change. Although it still belongs to the metropolitan area, its atmosphere is much more tranquil and similar to that of a village. It offers the pilgrim a well-deserved rest in a more relaxed environment. This stage is one of transition, preparing the walker for entering the plains of Toledo province.
