Europe is rich in history and abundant in nature. It can be challenging to know where to start, where to go, and when to quit when one decides to visit it for its scenic charm. Plan to go to these five Europe Nature Attractions to sate your nature wander-lust:
Azores Islands, Portugal
It would be a shame to travel to Europe but not visit a natural wonder as wonderful as the
Azores Islands. These islands offer a vast array of mud places in addition to scaling springs. From the once-molten rock, caverns, grottoes, and columns are created. Beautiful trees that make up cedar and laurel woods surround the azure lakes. The beautiful green fields are a complement to this splendor.
Ring of Kerry, Ireland
In the southern part of Ireland, there is a stunning attraction called the Ring of Kerry.
This 179-kilometer tourist route circles Killarney in the opposite direction, passing via the charming towns of Kenmare, Killorglin, Sneem, and others. The Ring of Kerry’s scenic beauty is what draws the majority of tourists there. While a large portion of Killarney National Park, Ireland’s first national park, is located within the Ring of Kerry, you may take in panoramic views from Ladies View.
Aurland, Norway
About ten minutes’ drive separates Aurland from Flm, one of the most well-liked destinations for visitors visiting Norway. The Sognefjord, the longest fjord in Norway, ends where the two communities are located. Here, you may enjoy enjoyable activities like fjord kayaking, fjord cruises, fjord safaris, and even Scandinavia’s largest zip line! Nature lovers must visit Aurland and the surrounding area, where there are numerous opportunities to enjoy the breathtaking surroundings. You can either walk down the Aurland Valley or rent a bike and ride down the well-known Flm Valley. Both journeys arrive at the fjord, which offers stunning scenery and photo opportunities.
Plitvice Lakes National Park, Croatia
The breathtaking Plitvice Lakes National Park is one of the most picturesque natural wonders of Europe. Due to its unusual formation of the 16 interconnected lakes in Plitvice, it is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Here, a series of rivers converge, cutting through limestone hills and depositing calcium deposits, moss, and algae that have formed lakes by acting as natural barriers. The turquoise blue waters of Plitvice, which are its most breathtaking feature, are also made possible by the limestone. There are many kilometers of hiking routes that ascend the hills, pass past caves and waterfalls, and cross extensive stretches of wooden decks that have been constructed.
Picos de Europa National Park, Spain
Asturias, Cantabria, and Castile and Leon are the three regions in northern Spain that make up the stunning Picos de Europa. This lush park was the first to be built in Spain and was named a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve in 2002. It was established in 1918.
There are numerous peaks in this alpine park that are over a thousand metres high. It is dotted with lakes, forests, and four rivers that run through it. Due to this and the area’s proximity to the water, it has a humid and rainy environment, which in turn contributes to the region’s famed dense, lush, and green foliage.
