The monumental guided tour
The guided tour of the monumental complex is by advance booking: call 674 38 12 44 or write to turismo@buitrago.org to check dates, and the office explains how to proceed. The website does not detail the route or the price, so ask when booking; the wall can also be walked on your own. Bear in mind that, according to the town council's own website, the Mendoza castle remains temporarily closed.
On the tourism website, turismo.buitrago.org, you can download a village guide in Spanish and English, a tourist map and a monumental and artistic map. The same website has a ticket sales section and a page on the Picasso Museum, another on the village's visits.
Parking in Buitrago
Buitrago has no regulated or paid parking zones. The only thing prohibited is driving and parking inside the walled enclosure if you are not a resident. Besides the Calle Tahona car park, open from 8:00 to 21:00, there are free areas on Plaza del Belén Viviente and Calle Fuente de Arriba, and spaces for people with reduced mobility. These areas may occasionally close for events. There are no charging points for electric cars, and camping with tents, caravans or motorhomes is prohibited throughout the municipality.
Getting there
Buitrago is about 75 km north of Madrid. By car, take the A-1 to exit 74. Without a car, the ALSA 191 bus leaves from the Plaza de Castilla interchange and the ticket is bought on board. There are also long-distance buses connecting with Aranda de Duero and El Burgo de Osma.
What to combine
Besides the wall, in Buitrago are the Arrabal bridge and the River Lozoya and, in summer, the Riosequillo pool. For lunch, the Asador Las Murallas. If you continue to the north of the region, the Hayedo de Montejo needs a pass, which is collected at the Sierra del Rincón information centre.
