Los Peñascales, Residential district in Torrelodones and Las Rozas de Madrid, Spain.

Los Peñascales lies between Sierra del Hoyo mountain and El Pardo forest, featuring numerous individual houses and residential developments across granite terrain.

The area transformed from communal mountains to large estates in the late 19th century, initially featuring scattered mansions used as vacation residences.

The district contains the Church of Nuestra Señora de la Merced and a former National Industry Institute summer residence, now serving as a convention center.

The area connects to Madrid through the A-6 highway, located 26 kilometers northwest of the capital city, with multiple residential developments arranged in a grid pattern.

The district includes the Gabriel Enríquez de la Orden reservoir, formed by Trofas stream, which flows through the central part of the locality.
