The Pyrenees range extends between the Mediterranean and the Atlantic coasts. The range contains high levels of biodiversity including over 200 endemic plant species. Although there are still pristine habitat areas, they are threatened by unmanaged mass tourism, unsustainable logging, development of winter resorts and access roads, and dam building, among other impacts. The Pyrenees are also the source of numerous rivers which are a crucial source of clean freshwater, especially to the regions located to the south of the range in drought-ridden Spain.
