About

Bola del Mundo or Alto de las Guarramillas is a mountain in the Sierra de Guadarrama, in the Sistema Central of the Iberian Peninsula. It is located in the Community of Madrid, near the border with the province of Segovia, in Spain. It has an altitude of 2257 meters with a prominence of 103 meters, and is the westernmost summit of the Cuerda Larga mountain range. Very close to the summit, on the east side, is the Ventisquero de la Condesa, an area with water emanations that constitutes the source of the Manzanares river, and where great thicknesses of snow accumulate in winter.
