Upper Rock Nature Reserve / Apes' Rock Description

Apes' Rock is home to Barbary apes which are the only monkeys living wild in Europe. A British army corporal is assigned the duty of feeding these living symbols of Gibraltar. Visitors should be wary in their dealings with the apes, which tend to bite.

Upper rock is a nature reserve and offers great views. It is also a good area for viewing migrations of birds between Africa and Europe.
