Another of the stunning quartzite cliffs in UNESCO territories carved out by water – in this case, the waters of the River Alagón – are the Canchos de Ramiro in Tajo Internacional. This spectacular and secluded spot is a treasure still unknown to many lovers of birdwatching which, however, is every bit as good as other similar vantage points such as the The Gypsy’s Leap in Monfragüe.

Its striking colony of griffon vulture, as well as Egyptian vulture, black stork, Bonelli’s eagle, golden eagle, eagle owl, peregrine falcon or common kestrel They will parade before your eyes as they move ceaselessly and hypnotically back and forth between their roosts and feeding grounds. At dusk, with the calm waters of the Alagón reflecting the stone mass and the sky, it is quite an experience.
