Desfiladero de Mataviejas

Yecla Gorge and Mataviejas Canyon in Burgos

Travel guide

On this occasion we suggest that you come with us to these beautiful places in the Geography of Burgos. Our first stop will be at the Yecla Gorge. This gorge has an approximate length of two kilometers and is mostly through walkways. In it we will dedicate ourselves to looking for the Wallcreeper and we will watch the first Griffon Vultures. Then we will move to the Mataviejas Canyon. This canyon is 4 kilometers long. On a comfortable tour we will go through the canyon in search of Golden Eagle, Blue Rock Thrush and Rock Bunting. Throughout the walk Griffon Vultures fly over the place and in the canyon forest we will look for Red Squirrels.

Weather

Temperatures at this time of year can be very low and even with some fog in the morning which can further accentuate the feeling of cold.

 

Recommendations for the trip

It is necessary to be very warm and waterproof clothing in case it rains.

Difficulty of the excursion

Low. Although we will have to walk in both canyons the path is very flat and does not offer any kind of difficulty.
