Castildetierra in the Bardenas Reales, Navarre, Spain
In the heart of the Bardenas Reales of Navarre, a unique semi-desert landscape in Spain, rises Castildetierra, the most iconic rock formation in the area. Its silhouette, reminiscent of a natural tower eroded by wind and water, is a symbol of this territory declared a Biosphere Reserve by UNESCO.
The Bardenas Reales, formerly lands of the Crown of Navarre, extend over more than 41,000 hectares of spectacular landscapes. Their clay, gypsum and sandstone soils have been shaped over centuries, creating ravines, plateaus and striking formations. There are no urban centres here, only the immensity of nature in its purest state. Visiting this place is like entering another world. Exploring its trails on foot, by bike or by car allows you to discover its rugged beauty and rich wildlife, featuring birds of prey such as the griffon vulture. Furthermore, its cinematic appearance has served as a setting for series and movies. If you're looking for a unique destination in Spain, the Bardenas Reales and the majestic Castildetierra await you. Be amazed by this unique landscape!
