Sierra de Urbión, Protected mountain area in Castile and León, Spain
The Sierra de Urbión reaches 2,228 meters at its highest point, featuring steep mountains, pine forests, and glacial lagoons across the northern Soria landscape.
The mountain range marks the origin point of the Duero River, which extends 890 kilometers from these peaks until reaching the Atlantic Ocean.
The Black Lagoon within Sierra de Urbión influenced Spanish literature through Antonio Machado's poem La tierra de Alvargonzález, reflecting local folklore.
Visitors access the area via the N-234 road from Soria to Cidones, followed by the SO-810 and SO-820 roads leading to Vinuesa.
The mountain range maintains one of the last populations of native crayfish in the autonomous community, surviving in specific water streams.
