Observation, fauna identification

Enjoying shows such as the rut, learning on our mycological and botanical routes or photographing birds and other species of the park. Also guided for professional photographers with or without a hide.

One of the sound shows in Alto Tajo is the Berrea of the deer, we invite you to enjoy it with our activities, on the route, with stars, and with didactic workshops with footprints, sheets, antlers… Accompanied by our interpretive guides in the best observation and listening areas.

Ornithology

We offer activities from initiation level to children’s workshops, ornithological routes, specialized observations, or professional photography (possibility of a hide).

Thanks to the exceptional biodiversity that surrounds us, birdwatching or bird sighting is one of the activities with which we will enjoy and learn the most on the ground. 

Thanks to our guides, we offer the possibility of accessing observation points without causing any disturbance to the fauna we are going to observe.
