Geography of Ávila
Ávila lies in the Central System, with the Sierra de Gredos and its summit, Almanzor (2,592 m), the highest point of the range. To the north opens the cold, high plateau; to the south, the warmer, more Mediterranean Tiétar valley. The climate is continental, with harsh winters. Pine and oak woods and the broom scrub of Gredos sustain the summer wildfire risk, above all in the south. Fun fact: Ávila is the highest provincial capital in Spain, at about 1,130 m, with its medieval walls listed as World Heritage.
