Yunquera

Highlight • Settlement

With less than 3,000 inhabitants, Yunquera is the most populated town in the Sierra de las Nieves region. This town of white houses is nestled in an incredible mountainous setting dotted with terraces with different crops. One of the biggest attractions in the area is the route of the source of the Rio Grande, also known as the "upwelling of Zarzalones".

Candelabra Spanish Fir

Highlight • Natural Monument

The candelabra fir, more than 16 meters high, is located just a few meters from the port of Saucillo. It is named for the peculiar shape of its branches. Next to it is a poster that explains the different processes that affect the growth of trees, resulting in extraordinary figures like this Spanish fir.
