Peña del Oso, Mountain summit in Sierra de Guadarrama, Spain.
Located in El Espinar municipality of Segovia province, Peña del Oso reaches an elevation of 2,196 meters within the central area of Sierra de Guadarrama mountain range.
The granite quarry at 1,800 meters on the southern face of Peña del Oso contributed building materials to local constructions throughout past centuries.
The summit forms part of La Mujer Muerta mountain chain, where its peak appears to match the crossed hands in the silhouette visible from Segovia plain.
The shortest climbing route starts from Navas de Riofrío, requiring a 1,000-meter elevation gain through paths that reach La Mujer Muerta ridge system.
The summit features a geodesic vertex and a granite sculpture of a bear, while its northern face contains one of the largest boulder fields in the sierra.
