"At only a short distance from the desert-like coasts of the Sahara, the rugged highlands of the island of La Gomera in the Canaries are the final refuge of one of the most unusual and emblematic woodlands in Spain. The almost permanent shroud of mists rising from the Ocean and hanging on the mountains impregnates them with moisture and freshness, and favours the miraculous survival of these splendid and mysterious forests, the last remaining vestige of the ancestral subtropical woodlands which covered the Mediterranean area millions of years ago."
