Navalperal de Tormes: Holiday Apartment between Gredos and the Tormes

Navalperal de Tormes lies in the Tormes Valley. The municipality extends from the peaks of the Sierra de Piedrahíta in the north to the peaks of the Sierra de Gredos in the south, following the Tormes Valley. A particularly impressive trail connection begins right in the village: the Senda de Cinco Lagunas starts at a bridge over the Tormes River in Navalperal de Tormes and leads through the Garganta del Pinar to the Circo de Cinco Lagunas.

Nature

In the wider region around Navalperal de Tormes lies the Sierra de Gredos Regional Park. The mountain range was shaped by earlier glacial erosion and features lagoons, cirques, gorges, rocky ridges, rock pinnacles and moraine deposits. Its wildlife also includes Iberian ibex. Another route leads to the Pozo de las Paredes: the Route a los Majanillos reaches an elevation of 1,302 metres there.

The two route descriptions have different focuses. The Senda de Cinco Lagunas forms part of a distinctive high-mountain landscape through its gorge, cirque and lagoons, while the Route a los Majanillos, with the Pozo de las Paredes and the elevation mentioned, offers its own geographical point of reference. Such differences in landscape and destination can be compared directly when planning your own trip.
