Arribes del Duero Natural Park
Image gallery
The extreme west of the provinces of Salamanca and Zamora is a corner of prodigious nature. Forming the border with Portugal, the Duero River and its tributaries Huebra and Uces have carved one of the most beautiful landscapes of the Peninsula.
Enjoy an ecosystem populated by the golden eagle, the griffon vulture and the black stork, as well as the Iberian wolf and the otter. Relax your eyes with the changing green of holm oaks, cork oaks, melojo oaks, olive trees and gall oaks.
Let yourself be captivated by the exciting boat routes among impressive landscapes, but don't forget the Pozo de los Humos and its waterfall of more than fifty meters.
Immerse yourself in the essence of the towns, where the stone architecture and traditions will speak to you of another time.
