Cervantes is a municipality in the comarca of Os Ancares, in the province of Lugo, Galicia (Spain). It had a population of 1,973 in 2005, and has an area of 277 square kilometres. Its highest point is Mustellar (1924 m), in the Ancares mountains. Until the second half of the 20th century this part of Spain was isolated. Many settlements had no road access or electricity and were cut off by snow in winter. Communities were small and self-sufficient. This way of life is shown in the small museum at Piornedo which is located in a preserved palloza. The main economic activities in 2006 were agriculture, forestry and tourism. GeographyCervantes is located in the natural mountainous setting of Los Ancares in Lugo. In the vicinity are located the following peaks:
These elevations are located in the nearby mountain ranges of A Trappe, Lóuzara, O Oribio, O Rañadoiro and O Piornal . The municipalities of the eastern mountains of Lugo make up the Galician region of Navia. The municipalities of Negueira de Muniz, Navia, Cervantes and As Nogais are fully Naviano municipalities. Flora and vegetationThe lands in Cervantes in the eastern mountains are home to a rich flora. Of the total species that exist in Galician, which is around 2,200 species and subspecies, only in the nearby highlands of O Courel can 800 taxa, nearly 40% of the total, in an area that represents 1% of the Galician surface, be found. The catalog of Os Ancares, that includes two slopes, consists of 1,028 vascular plant species and subspecies. There are 33 fern species that are located in these mountains as class 7 of pteridology wealth, out of a maximum of 8. This is one of the areas of greatest diversity of ferns in Spain. The relatively good state of conservation of the area means that there remains a forested area with a good presence of trees: oak, Mountain Oak, Turkey oak, beech, yew, elm mountain, hazel, holly, maple, birch, chestnut, cherry, rowan, ash, alder, willows and poplars.

Among birds, passerines are important for good representation, followed by accipitrines, among which are the short-toed eagle, the goshawk, abundant hawks, buzzards and the hen harrier. There is no shortage of red and gray partridge or grouse. HistoryAccording to some historians, this land places the probable origin of the lineage of Miguel de Cervantes as the last name of Saavedra appears in the baptismal records of the parish of Vilarello Igrexa which gives birth before to the principal author of Spanish literature{{Citation needed|date=May 2012}}. Also at the beginning of Chapter XXXIX of the first part of Don Quixote, Cervantes puts the following words into the mouth of the captive companion of Zoraida, which many identify with the author: "Somewhere in the mountains of León was my first lineage, with whom the nature of fortune was most grateful and liberal, although in the narrowness of those towns still reached the riches of my father's reputation..."
