See English version below

"La Cara" es otra de esas rocas muy conocidas en la Pedriza del Manzanares que aparece con ese nombre en los mapas. Se encuentra junto a uno de los senderos más frecuentados: el PR-M1, y aparece cuando se recorre ese camino que rodea toda la Pedriza en sentido horario, tras coronar el ascenso desde el collado de la Dehesilla hacia el Acebo. Es en esta aproximación en la que se aprecia mejor la forma de rostro de la roca.

Además de las coordenadas que figuran más abajo como lugar de aparcamiento, también es posible llegar desde el aparcamiento de El Tranco, en Manzanares el Real, en N 40º 44.516' W 003º 52.991'.
