The Duero riverside in the
province of Burgos
The Valleys of the Duero and
Esgueva rivers make up a territory with many similar elements,
the valley landscape is made
up of plains, undulated land,
hills and slopes that are dotted
between irrigated land, cereal
crops, vines and mountains. It
is a predominantly agricultural
area that has been farmed
since ancient times, from the
fertile vales of irrigated land to
the extensive fields of cereal
crops, not forgetting the vines
dotted over the countryside.
An extremely beautiful landscape that is characteristically
riverside and wooded with a
great bird wealth.
