Serra de Montsant Natural Park

The Parliament of Catalonia approved its declaration as a natural park in 2002 with the aim of protecting its geological, biological, landscape and cultural values, respecting the sustainable development of its uses. The peak of Roca Corbatera at 1,163 metres is the highest point in the park. A diverse and rich landscape, born from a complex orography, the confluence of several climatic regions and traditional agricultural uses. On the southern slope, the imposing rocky walls of the Cingle Major stand out powerfully. Above these, the mountain continues to ascend gently until reaching the Serra Major. The Serra Major is a rocky area with little or no vegetation. It is accessed via the graus (most accesses to the Serra Major are made through what are known as graus, since there are several places where you have to overcome the difference in altitude by going over a step or a difficult step). On the northern slope there is an area of wild forests and deep ravines, which extends from the Serra Major towards the north. The western Montsant is a sector of deep ravines and scrub with pine forests that descend from the cliffs towards the Montsant river. The valleys of the Montsant and Siurana rivers are an area of high ecological and aesthetic value. A unique and beautiful landscape. The Serra de Montsant Natural Park hosts a remarkable diversity of flora and fauna, shaped by its Mediterranean climate with sub-Mediterranean and eurosiberian influences....
