Las Quilamas, Nature reserve in Sierra de Francia, Spain

Las Quilamas extends across 11,100 hectares in southern Salamanca province, featuring deep valleys, steep mountains, and multiple rivers crossing the landscape.

The protected area designation under Law 8/1991 of Castilla y León established Las Quilamas as a natural space with special protection for birds.

The region includes several small municipalities like Aldeanueva de la Sierra and Cilleros de la Bastida, forming the microregion known as La Calería.

Multiple hiking trails start from Linares de Riofrío, including the 7.24-kilometer Sendero de las Honfrías and the 9.61-kilometer Balcon de Pilatos route.

The area maintains one of Castilla y León's largest black vulture colonies and provides habitat for black storks, peregrine falcons, and wild cats.

GPS coordinates: 40.56028,-5.98611
