Soto de Viñuelas, Natural landscape with holm oak forest in Community of Madrid, Spain.

The protected area spans 3,000 hectares of Mediterranean forest, featuring dense vegetation and diverse wildlife north of Madrid capital.

The estate belonged to Casa de Mendoza until the 16th century when Emperor Charles I acquired it, later becoming part of the Royal Site of El Pardo.

The Castle Viñuelas within the estate served as a residence for Spanish royalty and later became a headquarters during the Spanish Civil War.

Visitors can access the area through the M-607 Freeway, with bus lines 716 and L-3 connecting to Tres Cantos and Madrid.

The forest contains a network of mountain biking trails spanning over 40 kilometers, including the Mount Coto Pesadilla and Valcaliente Aqueduct routes.
