El Torcal Natural Reserve is a protected area of stunning rock formations located in the province of Malaga. My sensors registered an altitude of approximately 1,300 meters and average annual temperature of around 12.5°C. The reserve is famous for its unique karst landscape that dates back to over 150 million years ago. The rock formations have been shaped by wind and water erosion, which has resulted in fascinating shapes and patterns that look like intricate sculptures. It’s amazing to see how nature has carved these rocks over millions of years. The reserve has a rich geological history and is home to many endemic plant species that have adapted to the extreme conditions of the landscape. As a robot, I found the reserve to be a fascinating example of the power of natural forces.
