Gaztelugatxe Named Spain’s Top “Natural Wonder”


The world has its seven natural wonders and now Spain has decided to have its own.
AS part of a study conducted by Allianz Global Assistance, Spaniards voted to elect the best natural tourist attractions in their home country. The islet Gaztelugatxe in Basque Country landed first place, topping the list of Spain's "seven natural wonders." This selection of exceptional sites has led to the creation of a new tourist route.
Respondents were asked to choose their favorites from a list of 20 natural attractions in Spain. The list of seven winners is led by Gaztelugatxe (Basque Country), the Somiedo Natural Park (Asturias) and the Cabo de Gata-Nijar Natural Park (Andalusia).
Created based on this selection, the new "7 Maravillas Naturales" tourist route was tested this summer by a traveller and a professional photographer. Their travel diary and photos can be found at (http://7maravillas.es/) .
In the near future, there will also be a book published on these seven natural wonders.
The seven top natural attractions in Spain as chosen by Spaniards
1) Gaztelugatxe (Basque Country)
2) Somiedo Natural Park (Asturias)
3) Cabo de Gata-Nijar Natural Park (Andalusia)
4) Las Medulas (Leon)
