Sanabria lake in Zamora province, Castile and Leon

Sanabria lake in Zamora province, in autonomous community of Castille and Leon in north-western Spain.
The Sanabria Lake Natural Park is a natural park in Spain located around Sanabria Lake in the Sanabria comarca, northwest part of the Zamora Province, in the mountainous area of Sierra Segundera and Sierra de la Cabrera. It occupies a surface area of 22, 365 ha, with heights ranging from 997 m at the lake banks to the 2, 124 m of the peak of PeAna Trevinca. The park spans across the municipalities of Galende, Cobreros, Trefacio y Porto de Sanabria. With its 318.7 ha, the lake that gives the name to the park is the largest glacial lake of the Iberian Peninsula. Its maximum depth is 53 m. There are a number of little lakes scattered in the mountains and its canyons that show the action of the glacier activity of the Quaternary. Along with numerous streams and the luxuriant and varied vegetation in every level, the park possesses high aesthetic and landscape value.The great biodiversity is one of the main features of the ecosystem of the park. Woods of oak coexist with birch, alder, hazel, willow, ash, rowan, chestnut, holly and yews along with large extensions of scrubland (broom). In the highlands, broom is usually replaced by heath. Here, the abundance of little glacial lakes, snowfall, sources and streams allows the existence of peat bogs, a rarity in these latitudes
