Monte del Pilar, Mediterranean forest in Pozuelo de Alarcón, Spain.
Monte del Pilar extends across 804 hectares of land, featuring stone pine trees, holm oaks, and retama bushes throughout its natural landscape.
The forest originally connected with the Upper Manzanares Basin Regional Park until the construction of the A-6 highway and residential developments in the late 20th century.
Local residents and nature enthusiasts regularly use the forest paths for outdoor activities, maintaining a connection between urban life and natural spaces.
The forest spans three municipalities: 446 hectares in Pozuelo de Alarcón, 249 in Majadahonda, and 109 in Madrid, with multiple access points from each area.
The forest houses various bird species, including green woodpeckers, great spotted woodpeckers, black starlings, and Argentine parrots, despite urban pressures.
