Geography of Castellón
Castellón climbs from the coastal Plana to the interior mountains, with Penyagolosa (1,813 m), an emblematic Valencian peak, and regions such as the Maestrat. The Sierra de Espadán holds the only cork-oak woods in the Valencian Community. The climate is Mediterranean, with dry summers and storms. The extensive pine and cork-oak forests of the mountainous interior suffer major fires, favoured by rural abandonment and steep terrain. Fun fact: Penyagolosa is the goal of a famous thousand-year-old pilgrimage, els Pelegrins de Les Useres.
