Castile and León

The largest region of Spain in terms of area and the historic heart of the country. It offers a variety of culinary treasures to be tasted and cultural riches to be discovered....

Traversing its territory on foot or while mountain-climbing, cycling or horse-riding allows travellers to discover an extraordinary natural world. With its protected natural areas and the cultural centres of Salamanca and Segovia, it will delight every type of traveller. The region is marked by changing landscapes and reliefs, oscillating between mountains subject to a harsh climate and high plateaus on which cereals are grown. Alongside agriculture, it is the energy and mining sectors that drive the regional economy, one that still suffers in some places from a certain isolation and lack of infrastructure.
