    Tips

    This place is very suggestive, because it allows wide panoramic views of the imposing badland basin of the Rio Grassalo. Along the route there are numerous birds of prey such as the buzzard (Buteo buteo) and the kestrel (Falco tinnunculus), which circle on the clayey slopes in search of the small mammals and reptiles that populate them, while the water stagnations at the bottom of the valley and the depressions on the back of the bodies landslides favor the presence of various species of amphibians. Numerous diorchid blooms belonging to the Ophrys genus during the month of May.

      Beautiful view of the badlands, it feels like being in the USA.
