BETWEEN THE MEDITERRANEAN AND
CENTRAL EUROPE

The Montseny is a voyage between the Mediterranean and Central Europe. The variations of moisture and temperature which occur as altitude increases result in the distribution of plant life in ringed formations which surround the massif at different altitudes, and are known as “vegetation habitats”. In a few kilometres the changes in scenery which take place between Mediterranean woods and those of Central Europe can be seen.
