Monsacro, Mountain summit in Morcín, Spain
Rising to 1054 meters above sea level, Monsacro mountain features multiple hiking trails through diverse landscapes with abundant local flora and fauna.
The mountain served as a strategic observation point during medieval times, playing a crucial role in the defense system of the Asturian kingdom.
