There are two very different types of landscapes: the one that accompanies the river and the lower part of the ravines; and the higher area of the same with its corresponding rugged topography. The fauna and flora found in both is diverse, with the riverbank being home to a large number of native fish species such as eels, shiners and madrilla (fish), amphibians and some reptiles. In addition to interesting invertebrate species, it is also home to numerous species of birds such as kingfishers, bee-eaters, nightingales and goldfinches. Occasionally, herons or collverds (mallard ducks) can be found, which travel from nearby marshes or make stops on longer journeys.
