Join us for an unforgettable day visiting two unique rewilding sites in the Southern Iberian System. First, you'll meet the incredible Przewalski horses - ancient wild horses that once disappeared from the wild and are now helping to restore natural landscapes. These rare animals are true living legends, brought back from the edge of extinction. Next, meet our "four-legged firefighters" - Serrano horses and Tauros cattle grazing on lands that were devastated by a huge fire 20 years ago. Watch how these amazing animals are helping to restore the burned terrain and prevent future fires by naturally keeping the vegetation under control. Your expert guides will share the fascinating stories behind each project, explaining how these animals are key players in rewilding efforts. Learn about the challenges and successes of bringing nature back to life in one of Europe's wildest regions. Between visits, enjoy a delicious field lunch, tasting the authentic flavors of this beautiful mountain region. Perfect for wildlife lovers, conservation enthusiasts, or anyone curious about how we can help nature heal itself.

How your experience helps rewilding efforts
In a region where depopulation is one of the main challenges, we work exclusively with local partners. 100% of your experience - from travel agency to restaurant, guides to accommodations - comes from the territory itself, helping to change the economic model and show that nature-based tourism benefits everyone. Supporting Conservation: A portion of your visit directly funds habitat management, wildlife monitoring, and ongoing conservation projects led by Rewilding Spain in the Southern Iberian System. Building Awareness: Through guided visits and expert explanations, you become an ambassador for rewilding, sharing knowledge and supporting conservation efforts beyond your visit. Empowering Local Communities: By choosing local restaurants, guides, and services, your visit helps create sustainable income opportunities that encourage communities to actively support rewilding initiatives. Creating Economic Alternatives: Your participation demonstrates that wildlife and wild landscapes have real economic value, offering local communities a sustainable alternative to traditional activities that may harm the environment.
