The microclimate is particularly mild at the confluence of the rivers Barces and Mero. Both bring life to the dam of Cecebre, which supplies water to the whole of A Coruña and flooded the fertile lands which were covered, literally and literarily, by "The living forest" in the novel by Wenceslao Fernandez-Flórez ("EI Bosque Animado').

The region is full of fabulous pazos (country mansions), fertile plains, fruit and vegetable growing areas in an enjoyable landscape. The quality of the ecosystems is improving in the most inaccessible areas, such as the willow and alder groves along the banks of the river and the aquatic waterfowl shelters.

FLORA: Aquatic woods of willows (Salix atrocinerea) and alders (Alnus glutinosa). Common Cat-tail (Typha latifolia) abounds in some areas submitted to low and high tides.

FAUNA: Mallard Ducks (Anas platyrhynchos), Northern Pintails (Anas acuta), Coots (Fulica atra). Usual presence of Ospreys (Pandion haliaetus).
