Fuenfría Roman road, Roman road in Sierra de Guadarrama, Spain.
The stone-paved Fuenfría Roman road stretches through mountainous terrain, connecting the regions of Madrid and Segovia at an elevation of 1,796 meters.
The road served as a vital transportation route between the southern and northern regions of the Iberian Peninsula until the opening of Navacerrada Pass in 1788.
The ancient path features a monument to José Antonio Cimadevilla Covelo, who established the Association of Friends of the Caminos de Santiago de Madrid.
Access to the road requires walking, as motor vehicles are restricted, and visitors can explore the 25-kilometer route between Revenga and La Fuenfría.
The road maintains an average gradient of 10 percent, demonstrating Roman engineering capabilities in constructing sustainable mountain infrastructure.
