THE BARDENAS REALES DE NAVARRE
BED4U 28/02/2014
The Bardenas Reales de Navarra are located in the Southwest of Navarra , in the center of the Ebro Valley. They have an area of 41,845 hectares .
All this configures a wide desert without towns or cities. It is the largest desert in Europe, also known as the desert of colors.
They are limited by 13 Navarrese municipalities (Valtierra, Arguedas, Carcastillo, Santacara, Mélida, Rada, Caparroso, Villafranca, Cadreita, Tudela, Cabanillas, Fustiñana and Buñuel) and 5 of the Autonomous Community of Aragón (Tauste, Ejea de los Caballeros, Sádaba , Uncastillo and Sos del Rey Católico).
The Bardenas are a landscape of mountains, ravines and cuttings devastated by relentless erosion. Authentic desert landscapes are hidden in its heart, along with areas of Mediterranean scrub and pine forests.
They have been for centuries the winter headquarters of the huge flocks of sheep that graze during the summer months in the upper part of the Roncal and Salazar valleys .
In addition, they were the scene of a refuge for bandits . One of the best known is Sanchicorrota . Today you can visit his lair on the peak that bears his name, where he took refuge from the parties that were looking for him. It was a cave built for him by some friends whom he murdered as soon as he finished his work so that no one would know where he was hiding.
Currently, the Bardenas Reales are an attractive setting for filming films and advertising spots . In fact, many production companies choose our hotels to accommodate their staff while they film in Bardenas.
Because it is a unique place for its landscape and its natural wealth, it attracts many people who come to do different activities. Specifically, it is considered an especially exciting area for practicing sports such as mountain biking and getting lost pedaling through its routes and changing landscapes.
The Bardenas Reales de Navarra have been declared a Natural Park and Biosphere Reserve.
