The saw of Guadarrama pertene to the half this of the Central System, situated between the saws of Gredos and of Ayllón. It extends by the provinces of Madrid, southeast, and Segovia and Ávila, northwest. This saw measures roughly 80 km of length and his higher beak is Peñalara with 2.428 meters above sea level. It does of division between the basins of the Duero, northwest, and of the Tajo, southeast.

The flora of this saw characterises by the abundance of forests of wild pine and the presence of robledales of rebollo and encinares in zones lower. In the summits predominate the pastizales and bushes of high mountain. In these ecosystems abound mammals like deers, jabalíes, roebucks, gamos, badgers, several mustélidos, wildcats, foxes and hares. There is a big quantity of species of aquatic birds in the embalses, and big rapaces like the imperial eagle or the black vulture, between others.

Recently it has approved a project for the creation of a National Park, that pretends to protect some 30.000 hectares of the most valuable zone of the slope sureste of the Saw. Critics of opposition and environmentalists are that only they protect heights very high above the 1.700 metres, where the climatic conditions avoid already per human activities.
