Get ready to meet the real boss of the Mirabel pasture. The Padre Santo cork oak is much more than just a tree; it is a natural monument that commands respect from the very first glance. Just imagine: this colossus was already firmly rooted in the ground long before Philip V began his reign in 1700! It has a 350 years of wisdom accumulated beneath its rough cork bark.

What will really amaze you is its majestic bearing. It reaches 20 metres high, but its real gem is that cathedral-like dome that stretches up to the 27 metres in diameter. With a log of 4.25 metres in circumference, it exudes a sense of natural vigour that makes you feel small. A stroll through the communal pastureland until you come across it is a total immersion in the purest nature of the UNESCO Territories. Nearby, we recommend climbing up to the Mirabel Castle to enjoy its panoramic views and explore the The Umbría del Barbechoso route, ideal for immersing yourself in the biodiversity of the biosphere reserve.
