The Sierra del Caballón is part of the Site of Community Importance (SCI) and the Special Protection Area for Birds (SPA) within the European Ecological Network Natura 2000. Within the Sierra del Caballón, there are several places with great ecological, scenic and socio-cultural values, such as the Barranco de Los Robles, Barranco de la Romana, the Paraje Natural de La Colaita and the Paraje Natural del Matamón, which have a unique appearance, thanks to the presence of limestone strata due to the folding during their formation process.
The thickets of heather and kermes oak represent the ideal habitat for the nesting of numerous species of birds, reptiles, vegetation and trees. Including endemic species such as the verbascum fontqueri.
This abundant fauna that shelters the Mediterranean scrub ecosystem, makes the Parajes one of the main hunting areas of the Province of Valencia.
