Sierra de las Nieves, Andalucía
Andalucía's Sierra de las Nieves is to become Spain's 16th national park and the third in the province of Málaga.
Sierra de las Nieves has been a natural park since 1989 with half of it a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve and it is home to flora and fauna including ibex, roe deer, golden eagles and ancient pinsapos (Spanish fir trees) which date back to the Ice Age.
The approval of national park status will see funding for a visitor centre and to develop responsible tourism infrastructure within the national park.
Parque Nacional Sierra de las Nieves offers activities including mountain biking, climbing, caving, and kayaking.
