The picture of these beeches was taken at the Natural Park of Urbasa and Andia.
These lands were declared a Natural Park on the 27th of February, 1997. Together they cover an area of 21,408 Ha., mainly covered with beech woods and mountain pastures. The park's location, between 42° 58' and 42° 52' north latitude, and the height of the "Sierras", ranging from the 835m. of the lowest point of the Level de Urbasa to the 1492 m. at the top of San Donato, makes it a passing place between Navarra's Mountainous Region and the so-called Mid-Region.
Variety is one of the park's natural hallmarks. The vegetation includes species belonging to the Fagus (Beech), Acer (Maple), Crataegus (Hawthorn) and Quercus (Oak) genera. Special weather conditions and the area's vegetation make for varied ecosystems within the Park, each home to a wide range of fauna.
