The highest peaks of the Sistema Central, often snow-capped during winter and spring.
Meseta Central
The vast, high-altitude plateau of central Spain, showing geometric patterns of wheat fields.
Picos de Europa
Jagged limestone peaks visible in the distance to the northwest as the plane nears the coast.
