Miraflores de la Sierra: Paseo de las fuentes

A sample of the fountains
Miraflores de la Sierra has a fun little paseo called the paseo de las fuentes. It claims to be a 5km circular trail but it is a little awkward in the layout, which resulted in us missing a few of the fountains. The route starts from the center of the town at the main fountain, with a map indicating the next stop. Each stop is like this, with some of the fountains functioning while others have fun dry. There is not a comprehensive map rather each fountain provides the steps to the subsequent fountain. We certainly improvised along the way cutting through some old farmland but overall it was a really enjoyable walk. 

I think they could give this route an update, it's quite fun to have so many fountains, each with a little story attached and it gives one an excuse to roam the town a bit.
