Introduction to Guadala Mountain in Spain?

This is all I found. Hope useful to you ..

The Gua Dalama Mountains are located in the northern part of Madrid. It is a part of the central mountain system, and the highest peak is Benara (Pe? Alala) Peak is 2430 meters above sea level.

The undulating mountains present three completely different ecosystems according to altitude.

According to the different temperature, the tree species between ecological ladders are completely different; Therefore, the number of animals also changes with the bad and sinister weather.

It is connected with Sierra de Gredos in the east and Somosierra in the west. Here, we can see the ecological strata of oak forests, pine trees and shrubs, which are rich in animal populations, such as wild boar, roe deer, fox, bobcats and different kinds of eagles.

Animals and flowers in mountainous areas

In order to protect 234 species of vertebrates growing in mountainous areas (among which 169 species are protected by law), mountainous areas have long been listed as national parks for better protection. There are two nature parks in the mountainous area, although they are not at the national level: Shanfeng Nature Park and Benalala (Pe? Alara) Lake and its surrounding areas; Located in the northwest of Madrid, covering an area of 52,796 hectares, it is a highland park in the Mansa Nares River basin.

Raptors and scavengers maintain the balance and diversity of herbivores: large animals such as yellow deer, roe deer or deer, wild boar and goat of Cervidae; There are rabbits, lizards and voles, all of which are feasts of those raptors.

In the flat mountainous areas, there are sacred oak, juniper, rock rose, thyme, broom and French lavender, as well as European ash trees and willows. As the terrain gradually rises, oak trees and wild pine trees gradually appear; The highest altitude places are heather, shrubs and alpine meadows.

It is located in the hinterland of Gua Dalama Mountains, and is the most frequented place for Madrid climbers. You can often see yellow-brown vultures hovering in the air, looking for carrion.
