The geosites are the stops that best tell the story of the Villuercas Ibores Jara Geopark: the rocks, folds, valleys and caves show us how this landscape was shaped over millions of years. The geopark features more than 50 geosites spread across more than 2,500 square kilometres.

The lovely thing is that it’s not just about geology: the landscape, the villages and rural life are also part of the story, and that is why the geopark continues to gain prominence as a destination for nature and sustainable tourism.
