Other Site Characteristics

El Montseny forma parte de las sierras litorales catalanas y mantiene afinidades con la terminación del Sistema Transversal. Conjunto orográfico básicamente silícico, que logra altitudes considerables de hasta 1.700 m, con una fuerte heterogeneidad del relieve con predominio de las vertientes abruptas y las fuertes pendientes. La importante amplitud altitudinal del macizo, la heterogeneidad del relieve, los fuertes gradientes climáticos, la diversidad litológica, etc. son los responsables de la extraordinaria variedad paisajística. Las tierras bajas son cubiertas por encinares y alcornocales mediterráneos, mientras que en las zonas más montanas predominan los bosques de caducifolios (robledales, hayedos, fresnedas, avellanedas...) y en los niveles cacuminales el abeto y el matorral de enebro. La fauna está representada tanto por elementos corológicos mediterráneos (erizo moro), especialmente en las partes bajas, como por el centrouropeo (tritón pirenaico), localizado particularmente en los bosques de caducifolios.

4.2 Quality and importance

Constituye una unidad orográfica singular de transición entre la diversidad de paisajes típcamente mediterráneos y la penetración de ambientes eurosiberianos en la región mediterránea catalana. Si especial releieve permite la presencia de comunidades vegetales y animales propiamente boreo-alpinas. Esta caracterísitca de área de transición geográfica le da un elevado interés biogeográfico a este espacio con diversas especies situadas en su límite de distribución. Aproximadamente 100 asociaciones vegetales en una unidad orográfica singular

5.3 Site designation (optional)

Los límites de este espacio han sido trazados de acuerdo con la cartografía topográfica y planimétrica de referencia, a escala 1:50.000, del Instituto Cartográfico de Catalunya, que es el instituto cartográfico oficial y competente de la Generalitat de Catalunya.Los mapas facilitados para formalizar la propuesta de este espacio y definir su delimitación, citados en más adelante en este formulario, tienen la misma precisión de detalles, y la misma calidad, que los mapas de la cartografía topográfica y planimétrica de referencia, a escala 1:50.000, que publica con carácter oficial el Instituto Cartográfico de Catalunya. Estos mapas son la referencia, si no se indica lo contrario, de los detalles de descripción planimétrica, topográfica y/o toponímica que se puedan dar en este formulario. El 100.00% del espacio está incluido en el 'Pla d'Espais d'Interès Natural' (PEIN), aprobado por el Decreto 328/1992 de la Generalitat de Catalunya.En concreto el 99.66% pertenece al PEIN Massís del Montseny y el 0.34% a Riera d'Arbucies. La inclusión de estos porcentajes en PEINs implica un grado de protección en parte del lugar que no queda reflejado en el Apartado 5.1 del formulario, ya que la figura PEIN no está recogida en el mismo.
