Barco De Avila- escape to the Gredos Sierras

by angelab_nyc - last update: Oct 5, 2003

Barco De Avila

Barco De Avila-town square
A 2 hour drive from Madrid . In the mountains ...a historic town and quaint . Famous for their beans( thought I would throw that in)...seriously though, this area is receiving more attention from city dwellers looking for fresh air, hiking and a simpler pace.

Pros:"peaceful mountains, biking, walks, etc"
Cons:"nothing to do in the town, but a great side trip for a day"
In A Nutshell:"a small village"
