Reserva de la Biosfera de la Cuenca Alta del Río Manzanares
In the north-east of the Community of Madrid we find the Cuenca Alta del Río Manzanares Regional Park (Upper Manzanares river basin), which was declared a Biosphere Reserve by UNESCO in 1993. Heights range between 600 and 2,300 metres, forming a landscape of peaks, lower mountain, and plains that are the habitat of numerous Mediterranean species.
