The Umbria de la Virgen botanic garden (Jardin Botanico Umbría De La Virgen) is located in a stunning mountain area not far from María loz Velez amid the dense vegetation of the shaded slopes of the Sierra María. The facility provides information about the flora (and fauna) of the sierra de Maria-Los Velez natural park.
Inside the centre there are various leaflets, information boards and a small exhibition. Outside a path winds its way through the various displays of flowers, shrubs and other vegetation of the area with almost all plants labled with common Spanish and scientific names.
