National Parks

A national park is a park in use for conservation purposes. Often it is a reserve of natural, semi-natural, or developed land that a sovereign state declares or owns. Although individual nations designate their own national parks differently, there is a common idea: the conservation of 'wild nature' for posterity and as a symbol of national pride. An international organization, the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), and its World Commission on Protected Areas(WCPA), has defined "National Park" as its Category II type of protected areas.

Wallpaper Description:

Picos de Europa
The Picos de Europa(Peaks of Europe) host one of the world’s most perfect landscapes. In northern Spain, the park is named after its three distinct mountain ranges: the Central, Western, and Eastern ranges. All of which are intersected by river-filled gorges. Back in seafaring days, their size was the first indication of land for men at sea. The park is host to easily navigational and well-marked trails, which have proved to be the best way to soak in the natural beauty of these surroundings. From the park many viewpoints of the sea can be spotted, since the sea sits at merely 20 kilometers away. Otherwise grasslands, leafy forests of beech, and oak, sharp crags, waterways, high summits and deep ravines characterize the park. Nothing is off limits in the Peak of Europe. It is truly extraordinary.
