Galicia has a great variety of ecosystems of natural interest in its territory. Many of them are not properly known but they surprise whoever approaches them with respect. This book includes a guide to 24 natural spaces in the province of A Coruña, the most remarkable ones in terms of their geological and landscape value, due to the vertebrates that live in them and the botanical importance of the areas, as well as for other archaeological, historical or cultural aspects. Not all natural spaces of interest in the province are included in this guide, but only those that were deemed more representative, in an attempt to highlight peculiar characteristics in the selected habitats.

Therefore, we have included the following:

1.Estuaries, marshes, coastal lakes, dunes and beaches of ornithological interest -- winter habitats of birds --, for their landscape and botanical interest. 2. Islands and quays, for their landscape and for being areas of pelagic bird watching. 3. Mountains, for their botanic and geological interest. 4. Deciduous forests, for their high botanical value and their fauna. 5. Other areas of general, geological, landscape and cultural interest.
