EXTREMADURA

Extremadura is among the most varied interior regions in Europe: the biggest number of kilometres of river banks and fresh water coasts, among the firsts in gorges, the first in pastures, one of the most privileged in biological diversity,....

Among Gredos Mountain Range foothills and Plasencia city there are three northern districts along which flows Ambroz, Jerte ant Tietar rivers, all of them tributaries of Tajo river, natural gaps among these and the Tras las Sierras mountains and Tormantos mountain range. These two mountain ranges exceed 1000 meters height, and in the northern part of Jerte's Valley is the highest peak in Extremadura, "El calverito", with 2.425 meters height.
Hurdes and Sierra de Gata, are located north of the region, being some of their towns the most northern points in Extremadura, and bordering with Salamanca lands (Castilla and Leon) and the neighbouring Portugal. You can enjoy them just by the simple pleasure of watching landscapes full of beauty, the contrast of mountain ranges that bend towards valleys across which go clean and clear rivers.
