Bardenas Reales Biosphere Reserve and Natural Park, Navarra, Spain
Within the scenic landscape of Navarre, northern Spain, the Bardenas Reales Biosphere Reserve and Natural Park is like a surrealist painting come to life! This park is renowned for its desert-like landscapes sculpted by millennia of erosion. Featuring rocky plateaus, canyons and whimsically shaped clay structures called cabezos, the park is a playground of geological wonders.
Designated as a natural park in 1999 and a Biosphere Reserve by UNESCO in 2000, Bardenas Reales is also a haven for diverse flora and fauna adapted to its arid conditions. The park is home to various birds and animals, such as the great bustard, golden eagles, vultures, mountain cats, wild boars and many reptiles. Spread across around 420 square kilometres, the park's semi-desert environment and unique geological formations make it an important site for scientific research and conservation efforts. If you wish to discover a place where natural beauty meets wild surprises around every bend, Bardenas Reales should be on your bucket list!
