Description

Experience one of the most impressive natural shows of Iberian fauna: the deer rut. During the fall, the stags fill the valleys of the Picos de Europa with their powerful bellows as they compete to form their harem and defend their territory. An exciting experience that allows you to get a close-up view of one of the most intense moments in the natural cycle of this species. We depart at sunrise or sunset. The experience begins in the town of Fuente Dé, next to the cable car, where we'll meet to start the route in a classic 1980s Land Rover. For approximately 30 minutes, we'll travel along a mountain track until we reach our viewing point. Once there, we'll enjoy 2 to 3 hours in the heart of nature, with time to observe and discover the local fauna in a quiet and privileged environment. After the activity, we'll make our way back in the Land Rover to Fuente Dé, putting the finishing touch on a different, authentic experience in direct contact with nature. The entire activity takes place inside the National Park.
