Day Eleven Cue Sheet
Retortillo de Soria- Sigüenza(54.5 km)
Though most of Castilla-La Mancha’s
Ruta del Quijote
is located south of Madrid, there is one section in northernGuadalajara, near Sigüenza, which has some delightfully historic villages, some inhabited, some not. Once overthe Sierra Pela at the beginning of the day, it’s almost all downhill straight to Sigüenza. If you’re on a road bike, theroute is even more direct: just stay on the CM101, go though Imón, and take the highway straight to Sigüenza.
