* The observation of these species is not guaranteed in any case nor will we force situations that may be harmful to them to improve or facilitate their observation, these are wildlife that nest or roam in areas through which the route passes and our guides have the knowledge and experience necessary to show them through the telescope without interfering in their lives. Our activities are governed by a strict code of ethics that prioritizes conservation over observation. If you need to know more, you can access this link.

Realizamos una ruta de medio día por el entorno de Navaconcejo que combinó senderismo y baño en las pozas naturales de la zona.
Una experiencia fantástica, tanto por el paisaje como por Marcos que nos hizo de guía. Súper amable, adapta los tiempos y la dificultad de la ruta a las necesidades de los asistentes. Se conoce al dedillo la orografía, la fauna, la flora y las costumbres de la zona, así que para nosotros, que era la primera vez que visitamos el Valle del Jerte, ha sido genial. Sin darte cuenta, de forma pausada y tranquila a lo largo del recorrido, te vas con un montón de información y recomendaciones.
Sin duda, repetiremos una nueva experiencia con Marcos en cuanto tengamos ocasión.

We had a great trip with Marcos. We went to the Arrocampo on a bird watching tour. We were able to see many waterbirds, amongst many the purper heron, the squacco heron, the black crowned night heron, the little bittern... And many, many more. Marcos surprised us with a report after the trip listing all the birds we've seen. Also he treated us with a nice local lunch during the tour. All in all: we enjoyed the trip and the knowledge and company of Marcos. HIGHLY RECOMMEMDED!

We had an excellent half day tour in Montfrague with Marcos, who was incredibly knowledgeable and friendly and spoke English very well. He took us to lots of lovely spots and pointed out so much birdlife. I'd highly recommend him.

El 23 de abril visitamos Monfragüe en 4x4. Nuestro guía , Marcos, demostró un amplio conocimiento de la zona y nos explicó de manera clara y amena las características del parque y la evolución de este espacio protegido, se nota que le gusta lo que hace y lo transmite. Con los prismáticos y gracias al telescopio qué él llevaba pudimos ver cigüeñas negras, en sus nidos, incubando, buitres leonados con sus polluelos... y una amplia variedad de aves: halcón peregrino, alimoche,  roquero solitario..., también ciervos . Ha sido una experiencia inolvidable que recomiendo a todos los amantes de la naturaleza.

Esta mañana mi madre y yo hemos recorrido con Marcos un bosque de castaños centenarios y robles. Ha sido una excursión maravillosa que permanecerá en nuestra memoria. Más allá del recorrido que es de una gran belleza, Marcos nos ha llenado de historia. Sin duda recomendamos hacer un recorrido con él. Gracias

Marcos gave us the tour in English and we have no problems understanding him. He has good equipment to observe the wildlife. He is very knowledgeable and you can see he enjoys giving these tours. Definitely worthy. Some spots could get busy, you might want to book outside of weekends/bank holidays.
It was great overall!

Travelling through the Jerte Valley in a 4×4 is a unique experience that will allow you to discover spectacular corners of this natural paradise in Extremadura. At Gorrión Ecoturismo, we offer several guided routes in all-terrain vehicles for you to enjoy the rich landscape, biodiversity and history of this privileged enclave. From the viewpoints of the Jerte Valley to the famous Garganta de los Infiernos, we will go through little-travelled paths, perfect for those who are looking for an unforgettable adventure.

Discover the magic of the Jerte Valley in a 4×4 vehicle

The Jerte Valley is famous for its stunning mountain scenery, lush forests and crystal-clear rivers. Thanks to our 4×4 tours, you will be able to access places that are difficult for conventional vehicles to reach and enjoy unparalleled panoramic views. Durante el recorrido, haremos paradas estratégicas para conocer la flora y la fauna del entorno, así como la historia y las tradiciones de esta tierra de cerezas y montaña.

Some of the most emblematic points we visit on our tours are:

• Viewpoints of the Jerte Valley: Enjoy spectacular views of this unique natural environment, especially in spring with the cherry blossom.
• Garganta de los Infiernos: A protected natural area with waterfalls and pools of crystalline waters, perfect for observing biodiversity.
• Oak and chestnut forests: Home to a variety of fauna, including eagles, vultures and deer.
• Ancient transhumance paths: Historic paths used for centuries by shepherds and livestock farmers.

4×4 route in the Jerte Valley during cherry blossom season

One of the most spectacular times to take a 4×4 tour of the Jerte Valley is during spring, when more than a million cherry blossom trees transform the valley into a blanket of white. Our tours will take you to the best viewpoints to enjoy this natural spectacle without crowds, with explanations about cherry tree cultivation and the importance of this tradition in the local economy.

Jerte Valley 4×4 route in autumn: A burst of colours

The Autumn in the Jerte Valley is another ideal time to explore the area by 4×4. The forests of chestnut, oak and alder trees are tinged with ochre and golden tones, creating a fairytale landscape. Our routes at this time of year include stops in hidden spots, where you can enjoy the tranquillity of nature and, if you are lucky, spot deer in their natural habitat.

Wildlife observation on our 4×4 tours

The off-road routes in the Jerte Valley are an excellent opportunity to observe the fauna and flora of the area. With a little patience, it is possible to spot birds of prey such as golden eagles and griffon vultures, as well as mammals such as foxes, wild boar and deer.
