The idea of ??the interpretive exhibition is to show the importance of the hydrographic network as it is the authentic person in charge of life in the natural park. This idea is supported from the beginning of the exhibition tour on a topographic model of the Borosa river basin and a graphic recreation of the entire river network of the park.

For its development, it is proposed, as a plot line, a trip along the river crossing its banks through a sculptural riverside forest. A reed bed scenery brings the visitor closer to the river bank. Through a space endowed with an atmosphere of the interior of a river, it submerges in the water in the company of its rich ichthyofauna, such as the European eel.

The common and rainbow trout, barbel and bogas are the food for a great variety of small mammals and fish birds that inhabit this environment. All make up an immense network that is also present in the tour of the visitor center.

As a culmination, it shows the importance of properly exploiting the two main natural resources of these mountains: water and forests.

To leave with a good taste in your mouth, nothing better than enjoying some of the home-made specialties in its cafeteria overlooking the garden, accompanied by the singing of birds in a privileged environment.
