Sierra de Gredos
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Sierra de Gredos is a mountain range in the centre of the Iberian Peninsula, located between Ávila, Cáceres, Madrid and Toledo. It has been declared a regional park. Its highest point is Pico Almanzor, at 2,592 metres.
The La Vera area between Plasencia, Barajas de Gredos and Arenas de San Pedro in the Sierra de Gredos has lots of "gargantas", beautiful mountain creeks. La Vera has a milder climate than elsewhere in the mountains where the summers are very hot and the high-lying land is usually very cold in winter. Tourists can find lots of accommodation such as camping, hotels, casa rurales.
