About
Quick facts: Over 200 bird species, including the black vulture and Spanish imperial eagle, soar above the rugged limestone cliffs here. The park spans nearly 18,000 hectares of dense Mediterranean forest and river valleys.
Highlights: A towering viewpoint named Salto del Gitano offers panoramic views and houses the ruins of an old Moorish castle. Watching griffon vultures glide just feet above your head at dawn is a jaw-dropping experience.
Insider tips
- Wear sturdy shoes because trails are rocky and uneven.
- Head to Salto del Gitano viewpoint at sunrise for the best birdwatching and soft light photography.
- Carry binoculars to spot elusive eagles and vultures soaring above.
- Avoid midday visits in summer to escape intense heat and fewer active birds.
