Routes through the Alto Tajo

The atlas brings together 44 official trails in the Alto Tajo and Señorío de Molina under current Natural Park designations: footpaths, georoutes, mountain bike and ethnographic routes, intersecting GR long-distance paths, and PR-GU trails certified by the regional mountaineering federation. 20 are low difficulty and 23 are circular loops. Each guide links to its official source with GPS tracks and current notices.

Distinguish between walking trails, cycling routes, and driving georoutes with several stops: not all are experienced the same way. Times do not include approach drives or rests. For linear trails, verify with the source whether figures include the return trip. Difficulty is derived from official ratings or estimated by distance and ascent.
