Hidden Madrid Region: Private Day Trip to Patones de Arriba

Hidden Madrid Region: Patones de Arriba

Looking for an authentic village close to Madrid—peaceful, beautiful, and uncrowded?
Welcome to Patones de Arriba, a tiny hilltop settlement built in black slate, where flowered balconies and cobbled alleys create a postcard at every turn.

Our private day trip is designed for travelers who appreciate comfort, elegance, and calm: gentle walks, scenic viewpoints, and thoughtful stories that bring the village to life—at your pace.

• Scenic viewpoints – wide valley and foothill vistas just a short stroll away.
