Mountain hikes day trip from Madrid

We are seeking a hike with nice mountain views, ideally only "moderate" difficulty, perhaps 4-8 miles total, that can be done nicely in a day trip from central Madrid without renting car. I have done some searching and even tried ChatGPT but so far still confused, or, finding trips that look easy but not great views, or trips that have great views but look like a bit of a stretch for a day or perhaps easy to get lost.

Thank you!

Manzanares el Real, bus from Madrid to the town, walk from there to a trailhead.

Does that work?
