Plain Green Landscape

Spain is full of beautiful, unspoilt natural landscapes with many still relatively undiscovered. A country full of natural wonders, stunning geological scenery, lush forests, dry deserts, volcanoes, lakes and impressive mountains.

Four autonomous communities (Galicia, Asturias, Cantabria and the Basque Country) make up what is known as Green Spain. Joined by the Cantabrian Sea, they make up the unique tourist route for travelling with the family or friends. Ideal for nature enthusiasts. Spectacular landscapes that stretch from the mouth of the River Miño on the Atlantic Ocean (between Galicia and Portugal) to the mouth of the River Bidasoa (which separates Spain from France geographically). A land with pleasant, mild average temperatures that never disappoint.

Green Spain has two very clearly defined landscapes: the coast (the sea) and the interior (the mountains). The coast varies and is marked by estuaries, cliffs, white sandy beaches and many traditional seafaring villages. The mountains offer a wide variety of countryside and contrasts, with a predominance of green fields, thick forests (beech, oak and chestnut), deep ravines and valleys and saltwater rivers.
