- Almost two thousand metre high peaks or extensive wetlands surrounded by dunes along the coast.
- Ravines overflowing with vegetation or secluded coves and a never ending selection of Mediterranean beaches.
- Towns perched on top of the hills, medieval walled in towns, residential towns by the sea, spas, hermitages, monasteries, castles, snow wells that used to store ice, prehistoric caves with cave paintings, royal gullies, ancient horse trails and a huge selection of hikes.
