The holm oak groves of the Olmos plateau Nature · Olmos de Esgueva, Páramos del Esgueva, Valladolid Image of Olmos de Esgueva, not of the place itself. At 735 metres and on the left bank of the Esgueva, 17.5 kilometres from Valladolid, the municipal district combines plain, slope and moorland, and preserves on the heights patches of holm oak wood that resisted the clearing for cereal.
