The villages of the greenways

It is worth starting the visit by taking a walk through the streets of Estremera. The stately homes of the old great families of the town, the crypt of the XNUMXth century cemetery and the XNUMXth century parish church. The town maintains festivals and traditions such as the Mayos or the running of the hornazo as well as typical dishes that are usually cooked in all its celebrations: porridge, lamb, oil buns, mantecados and repápalos. For walking and cycling enjoying the landscape and fauna, the green routes are the best places in the region. More information in https://www.ayuntamiento.es/estremera

The urban route through Morata de Tajuña surprises the traveler. The popular architecture, the house-caves and the unique historical and artistic buildings of the so-called capital of the plain of Tajuña, as well as the tranquility of its natural landscapes. Morata and its surroundings are a land of garlic, oil, the best and freshest products from the garden and small game that are part of the dishes and tapas of its Castilian and Madrid gastronomy. You can visit a curious museum free of charge, that of the milling industry. More information in http://www.ayuntamientodemorata.es/
