The flora of this protected space contains redoubts of the indigenous Mediterranean forest, as well as of deciduous species. This sierra is noteworthy in terms of the indigenous Mediterranean pine groves it houses. With respect to the fauna, we should mention the existence of the badger, wild cat or genet, amongst others.
