Calle and Juan Enrique Gómez, (Sierra de Cazorla, Segura y Las Villas: Donde nacen los ríos ), Waste Magazine, gives a different number, ''"214.336 hectáreas"'', that is, 214,336 ha, .〕 it is the largest protected area in Spain〔〔 and the second largest in Europe.〔 It was declared a biosphere reserve by UNESCO in 1983〔(Biosphere Reserve Information: Sierras de Cazorla, Segura y Las Villas ), UNESCO, 2007-02-27.

The beauty of the countryside and the rich flora and fauna combine with a rich cultural heritage to make the region an important destination for tourism. The park includes two high ranges, the Sierra de Cazorla and the Sierra de Segura. These mountain ranges are part of the Prebaetic System, the northernmost portion of the Baetic Cordillera. Generally running southeast-to-northeast, they meet up with the Sierra Morena that runs from this region west to Portugal. Between the mountain ranges are important valleys, including the headwaters of the Guadalquivir, which—after initially heading some northeast through the mountains—runs west to the Atlantic Ocean, but also of the Segura, which runs east to the Mediterranean.〔 Altitudes in the park range from above sea level where the river Guadiana Menor flows out the southern boundary of the park〔 to the peak of Cerro las Empanadas.〔 Other important peaks are Alto de la Cabrilla (),〔 Cabañas (),〔 Las Banderillas (),〔 Aguilón del Loco (),〔 Blanquillo or Pedro Miguel (),〔 and El Yelmo ().〔 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「Sierras de Cazorla, Segura y Las Villas Natural Park」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
