Leaving from Valle del Tiétar
The Tiétar valley runs along the southern face of Gredos, from Sotillo de la Adrada through Arenas de San Pedro to Candeleda, with villages among chestnuts, pines and orchards and many Madrid weekend homes. It is a long way from the city of Ávila over the mountains, so many residents live their lives more towards Madrid and Talavera.
Which way it goes
From the Tiétar valley nobody goes up to Ávila to reach Madrid: the valley road continues towards San Martín de Valdeiglesias and enters Madrid from the south-west, or drivers drop down to the A-5 through Toledo province. For Barajas the route crosses Madrid on the M-40 or M-50.
