This area is characterized by countless singularities that make the Batuecas-Sierra de Francia a unique destination among other things:
- For the good state of conservation of its forests: holm oak, oak, chestnut, cork, pine ... in which we find yews, rowan, holly, mastic, almeces, arbutus, etc..
- For its complicated landscape of deep valleys, in which vegetation and man have drawn a striking mosaic.
- For the fauna and flora of the environment, where species such as the black vulture, the Sierra de Francia lizard, the Alagón beetle and the Armeria salmantica stand out.
- For the rich ethnographic and artistic heritage that the geographical isolation has preserved to this day.
- For a unique popular architecture of which there are still good samples.
