We are committed to the environment and work towards sustainable tourism.
That is why we are taking measures in this direction. More information
-At the beginning of our activity the native guide informs about the natural space where we are, its important natural values and its protection figures. As well as about what we can do for their conservation and for what kind of activity we must ask permission: e.g. uncorking, logging, burning stubble ...
-Our activity does not cause impact on the environment since we go through a marked trail where we make an interpretation of the fauna and flora that we find on our way through the pasture talking about the use that our elders gave to the different plants both medicinal and culinary. Respecting at all times to these wild plants without carrying out their collection. On the contrary, the guide is personally responsible for taking any waste that we find on our way or at the meeting point and deposit it in the places provided for recycling.
- At the time when the Quercus give us acorns if we collect some when they are germinated for planting and subsequent reforestation encouraging visitors to perform this practice. - We value the old trades of the region and support the local economy by marketing products such as pottery, honey, sweets, liquors ... in addition to the sausages and hams that we produce and cured in natural dryers (without engines).
-At the end of the visit we take care of recycling any waste generated.

Live the experience hand in hand with a local guide
The visit consists of three parts:
First, we walk a trail of almost 3 km through a pasture of centenary trees, where we make an interpretation of the fauna and flora that we find on our way. We visit a private farm where the Iberian pig is raised in freedom and explain everything about their breeding, feeding, breed, etc..
In the second part, we visit an old ham factory museum, drying rooms, cellar and explain the process of making sausages and Iberian hams.
We finish with a tasting of cured products derived from the Iberian pig: sausages paired with red wine with Designation of Origin and acorn-fed Iberian ham paired with white wine.
If you wish, you can visit the store, where you can buy local and handmade products, thus supporting the local economy.
