Natural Park River Cabriel
Natural Park River Cabriel, Natural park in Valencia Province, Spain
Natural Park River Cabriel is a large protected area stretching between Valencia and Castilla-La Mancha regions, shaped by a river that has carved deep gorges through limestone rock formations. The landscape contains steep canyon walls, riverside flats, and forested slopes with diverse plant and animal life.
The area was officially protected as a natural park in 2005 to preserve the river landscape and its ecosystems. Later in 2019, it earned recognition as a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, emphasizing its international importance for conservation.
The region has a long tradition of using the river, shown by historic bridges and water wheels that connected communities across generations. These structures still shape the landscape today and remind visitors how important the river was to local life.
You can explore the area on foot, by bike, or on boat trips along the river, depending on your abilities and interests. An information center at the park provides maps and advice on safe routes and the best spots for watching wildlife.
The Cuchillos rock formation features sharp-edged peaks shaped by erosion over thousands of years, rising like natural teeth from the river valley. This unusual rocky ridge attracts geology enthusiasts and photographers who come to study and photograph its striking appearance.
