- GRAND TOUR OF UNESCO SITES
The Grand Tour
The province of Cáceres has three territories recognised by UNESCO for its extraordinary biodiversity, its culture and the interaction between the two: unique flora and fauna (particularly birds); unique geological heritage; clear night skies; environmental sustainability, traditions and cuisine.
No destinations better embody the essence of the province of Cáceres in its commitment to sustainable, respectful and responsible tourism than these three UNESCO sites: The Villuercas Ibores Jara Global Geopark, the Monfragüe Biosphere Reserve and the Tajo-Tejo Internacional Transboundary Biosphere Reserve.
It is a question of areas that are not overrun by tourists, very authentic and well-preserved, well-preserved and charming, situated in the heart of the province of Cáceres, which undoubtedly deserve a trip to discover them and enjoy them at your own pace, either individually or as a whole.
Each of them has exceptional resources, some of which have become tourist attractions in Extremadura, such as the Monfragüe National Park, the Tajo Internacional Nature Reserve, the geosites within the geopark, the numerous SPAs and SACs or, on a cultural level, the megalithism, the Guadalupe Monastery or the Roman bridge at Alcántara.
