De Vallei van Jerte

Jerte Valley is a small corner in the north of the province of Cáceres that offers some of the most colourful and fascinating scenic experiences in Spain from its gentle hills. The valley runs along the first stretch of the river that names it and is protected by the western foothills of Sierra de Gredos and Sierra de Béjar to the north. Its favourable climatic conditions and the fertility of its land have favoured the development of the traditional and intensive horticulture which characterises it. The expert hand of the inhabitants of the Jerte Valley, in complicity with nature, have created a region with a great deal of personality and incomparable beauty over the centuries.
