Itinerary description

It is a rute where we have visited the meandres of the Tajo river and visited the gully near the embalse of the tajo river. Where we have learned how the landscape is eroded and the vegetation of this landscapes.

Waypoints

Mirador del Cambrón

Gully (cárcavas y barrancos) It is a gully formed by soft rocks. In this landscape the climate it is dry and when it rains usually it is torrencial, the gully it is eroded by the water and the air that give this particular forms. This part it is badlands.

Meandro del Tajo

The meanders occurs in the middle and low part of the river where the river loses strength and looks like a lagoon. We can distinguish that the river erodes more in the curve and take the sediments from the gully. At the final of the meander there is an hydraulic press and for this reason there is more water.

Plants and vegetation

Stipa tenacissima and Retama sphaerocarpa are two plants that don't need much water, they can survive in dry area. These plants are found in Aranjuez and in Ontigola because they share the shame climate that in this place.

Mirador del Valle

Is an excaveting meander of the Tajo's river. Erosion doesn't occurs at the sides because the rock it is very hard for this reason it occurs at the base.
