El Valle del Jerte is placed in the spurs
of Gredos Mountains. It is a zone of an impressive value
in the landscape. The principal route of the region is the
N-110, which joins Plasencia (the capital-city of this region)
with Avila, across Tornavacas Port, from where we can admire
the impressive vision of the valley.
What it really awards personality to this
zone is a tree: The cherry-tree. Such it is the number of
cherry-trees that when they are flowering they provoke panoramic
of authentic ecstasy in all its visitors. In April, when
the snow of the mountain starts disappearing, the immaculate
white of the flowers of the cherry-tree floods the hillsides
of the valley producing a floral spectacle that it is difficult
to forget for the visitor.
El Valle del Jerte offers the meeting
among the visitors and the nature in its pures and cleaner
state. Its innumerable gorges, its green landscape, its
thick forest and its cultural wealth do of this zone one
of the most attractive landscapes of the Iberian Peninsula.
