Toros de Guisando
Toros de Guisando Review
The Toros de Guisando, or stone bulls, dating from the 6th century BC, are thought to have been used as territorial border markers for a Celtiberian tribe. Just three of many such bulls once scattered around the Castilian countryside (they take their name from the nearby Cerro Guisando, or Guisando Hill), they're now a symbol of the Spanish Tourist Board. To see these taurine effigies, head back east from Arenas on the C501; it's a pleasant drive through countryside bordered to the north by the Gredos range.
- Address: Near Cerro Guisando, 6 km (4 mi) before San Martín, on right side of road, on other side of hedge with stone inscription, San Martín de Valdeiglesias, 05270
- Location: San Martín de Valdeiglesias
