Sierra Nevada

Sierra Nevada is a major Spanish mountain range located in the Andalucía region. This formation is the highest range in continental Spain, containing Mulhacén, the tallest peak in the Iberian Peninsula. The area is designated as a National Park and UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, protecting a unique ecosystem that combines high-alpine terrain with Mediterranean flora. The range functions as a crucial source of water for the surrounding plains and supports a substantial center for winter sports, particularly the Pradollano ski section, and summer recreation. The high altitude and glacial valley's offer striking geological features and serve as a major national destination.
