The Sierra de la Culebra, (ポルトガル語:Serra da Coroa), is a mountain range in Castile and León, northwest Spain, and northeastern Portugal. It lies 7 km south of Puebla de Sanabria in the comarcas of Aliste, Sanabria and La Carballeda (Zamora Province), as well as Vinhais and Bragança municipalities in the District of Bragança. Its highest point is high Peña Mira, located near Flechas, within Figueruela de Arriba municipal term; other important peaks are Miño Cuevo and Campanario .〔(La Sierra de la Culebra. Tras la cuna del lobo )〕 The Sierra de la Culebra is a 95 km long regular mountain chain of medium height, forming a natural border with the Portuguese region of Tras os Montes on its western end. Its slopes are wooded, occasionally ravaged by forest fires. The summits of the range are often covered with snow in the winter and there are odd-looking rocky quartzite outcrops on them. Among the rivers in Spain and Portugal having their source in Sierra de la Culebra, the Castro River, Tera, Tuella, Sabor and Maçãs (Manzanas), deserve mention. These mountains are famous as one of the few remaining strongholds of the Iberian wolf.〔(Signatus )〕 ==Subranges== The Sierra de la Culebra is a southeastern prolongation of Sierra Segundera, at the southern fringes of the Macizo Galaico-Leonés. The western prolongations of Serra de Montezinho or ''Maciço de Montesinho'', Sierra de la Gamoneda ((ポルトガル語:Serra da Gamoneda)) and Sierra del Marabón ((ポルトガル語:Serra de Marabón)) are part of the Sierra de la Culebra mountainous system. One important feature is the Rock of the Three Kingdoms dividing three ancient Iberian kingdoms in the Serra de Marabón subrange.〔(Penedo dos Três Reinos («The Rock of Three Kingdoms») )〕 Other subranges are Sierra de las Cavernas, Sierra de los Cantadores and Sierra de las Carbas, located on the Spanish side. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Sierra de la Culebra」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
