Montón de Trigo, Mountain summit in Sierra de Guadarrama, Spain
Montón de Trigo reaches an elevation of 2,161 meters above sea level, featuring a prominence of 173 meters in the Castile mountain ranges.
The mountain trail incorporates sections of an ancient Roman road that connected Segovia and Titulcia, constructed during the first century AD.
The name Montón de Trigo, meaning Wheat Heap in English, derives from the mountain's distinctive pyramidal shape resembling stacked grain.
Hikers can access the summit through two main routes: a 20-kilometer path from Puerto de Navacerrada or an alternative trail starting in Cercedilla.
The summit offers views of Madrid's mountains, including Peñalara, Dos Hermanas, Siete Picos, and La Mujer Muerta from its strategic location.
