Patones de Arriba is a small and charming village popular for it´s houses made of black slate. It offers a unique place tovisit as a day trip. Moreover, it is a known hiking route. This fascinating place is situated 60km from Madrid by car. The article will highlight what to do, see and eat in Patones de Arriba.

What to do and see in Patones de Arriba:

If you visit Patones, then park in the village just before because the village does not allow non-residents parking. As you could imagine, parking is limited and priority is for residents. I recommend you to walk up to Patones de Abajo via route "El Barranco Ecological Trail". The parking places are not too far from the village if you arrive ealier than 10am. Firstly as you arrive visit "church of San Jose" which is now become the tourist information office. You can explore and basically walk through the streets of this town in relaxed strolls in a few hours. There are some steep hills and it can be slippery if it rains, but in general, the balades are pleasant.

TOP THINGS TO SEE

As you wander on the outskirts you will spot streams and in the interior there are several restaurants. Few locals remain in the village so the hospitality and artesanal markets are mostly for visitors and tourists. In terms of food and gastronomy,look out for traditional Castilian food and locally made products like honey, and fresh cheese. Patones de Arriba offers accommodation so make a unique experience by lodging in the slate stone village at hotels and guesthouses like El Tiempo Perdido, El Refugio, El Ensueno, La Fuente.
