Grazalema
POI

In the heart of the Sierra de Grazalema we find the world's largest concentration of the only tree that, along with mosses, ferns and lichens, managed to survive the last alpine glaciation. A forest that through a path connects Grazalema and Benamahoma and through which, in addition to walking among majestic Spanish firs, you can enjoy the flight of native species such as griffon vultures, peregrine falcons, Egyptian vultures, goshawks and golden eagles. A pioneer place in Spain, since the Sierra de Grazalema was the first area, together with Ordesa-Viñamala, to be declared a Biosphere Reserve, in 1976, and also the first in Andalusia to be declared a Natural Park, years later, in 1984. More than 53,000 hectares between the east of the province of Cadiz and the south of the province of Malaga, which include fourteen municipalities, give shape to this jewel whose values have been recognized by UNESCO as exceptional, both in its biodiversity and its culture. A unique space in the South of Europe with the highest rainfall index in the country.
