In 1999 the "Sun Mountains", Sulayr, as the moorish people called them hundreds of years ago, was declared a national park. Due to its diverse climatic and vegetation zones, the Sierra has a large number of endemic plant species and offers a habitat for animals that have adapted to their extreme conditions.
