We are committed to the environment and work towards sustainable tourism.
That is why we are taking measures in this direction. More information
El Velero de Aguilar is committed to the environment and to the conservation of the natural and cultural resources around the reservoir.
- We are members of EUROPARC and the European Charter for Sustainable Tourism in Protected Natural Areas.
- We are a collaborating entity, both with the Natural Park of Montaña Palentina and with the Geopark Las Loras and we follow their sustainability criteria.
- The activity is carried out with groups of a maximum of 4 people and we try to raise environmental awareness, to reduce seasonality and minimise negative environmental impact.
-We sail whenever possible.
-If we find rubbish while sailing, it is not common, we collect it systematically.
-We do not interfere with wildlife sightings, which are very common when sailing, due to the low acoustic impact.
- With us you will get to know in a unique way the landscape, the fauna, the geology and the way of life of the mountain, both now and in the past.
- We maintain links with other companies, associations and entities of the territory to develop these ideas of sustainability together.
- We use ecological or non-toxic products for the maintenance of the boat.
- We minimise our carbon footprint.

Open map Aguilar de Campoo (Palencia), España
Feel the wind in your face and cutting through the waves.
Discover secret corners in the Palencia Mountains, disembark in villages submerged under the waters of the reservoir, swim in paradisiacal coves, follow the trail of the brown bear, visit islands where deer take refuge to breed safe from the wolf, watch waterfowl: Herons, gulls, grebes, even the osprey, once critically endangered, now inhabiting our riverbanks.
Or visit the Romanesque mountain that punctuates the riverbank. All this in an incomparable geological setting, where dinosaurs roamed among forests with giant plants, and now we have their fossils to remember them.
All this and more from a nineteen-foot cruiser, with Julio, its captain at the helm. A nature and nautical enthusiast who will introduce you to the secrets of how to travel without using fossil fuels, simply interpreting the wind and currents, natural elements, and making use of them. Sailing, as in other times.
