The mountain range is located on the Iberian Peninsula on the territory of the provinces of Ávila, Cáceres, Toledo and the autonomous community of Madrid. The highest point is the 2592 m high Pico Almanzor. The Sierra de Gredos is the headwaters of the Tormes, Alberche and Tiétar rivers; it forms the watershed between the water systems of the Duero to the north and the Tajo to the south.
Parador of the Gredos
Between crystalline waters, rugged rocks and the green pine forests of the Sierra de Gredos, the Parador de Gredos, the first of all Paradores, has been entrenched behind stately stone walls since 1928. In the interior, the rustic furnishings ensure comfort and a stately ambience at the same time. Here, on the ridge of the Alto del Risquillo, the majestic building offers impressive panoramas over the Valle de Tormes, the Sierrau de Piedrahita and Béjar mountain ranges and the Gredos massif.
