SPAIN: MONASTERIO DE PIEDRA

Hidden in the mountains in the province of Zaragoza, the Natural Park of the Monasterio de Piedra offers a really beautiful environment, especially in Autumn.

Around a monastery, the waters of the River Piedra have shaped the landscape into lakes, grottos and waterfalls, such us:

• Cascada Caprichosa (Caprichosa Waterfall)
• Lago de los Patos (Lake of Ducks)
• Cascada Trinidad (Trinidad Waterfall)
• Cascada Caprichosa (Caprichosa Waterfall)
• River Piedra
• Cascada Iris (Iris Waterfall)
• Gruta Iris (Iris Grotto)
• Cascada Cola de Caballo (Cola de Caballo Waterfall)
• Lago del Espejo (Mirror Lake)

• Monasterio de Piedra

Besides, the park preserves dense forests in an ecosystem of great biological richness with many different species of animals and a great variety of giant trees.
