DESCRIPTION
In this activity we propose you to carry out an interpretive route carried out by expert local guides, with extensive knowledge of the territory, in which our objective will be to get to know the territory of the Iberian lynx, observe the landscapes, their fauna and flora, and subsequently, make a visit to a tourist oil mill, where we will learn all the secrets of the olive grove and the production of olive oil.
In addition, we will carry out a tasting accompanied by an expert monitor from the mill itself.
We started the activity by taking a 4x4 vehicle tour to learn about the Iberian lynx's habitat, its ecology, its behavior, the conservation actions that have been carried out for its recovery, and we will make short waits with optical material to try to observe it in public areas. of the Sierra de Andújar Natural Park and the Rumblar, Guadalén and Guadalmena Basins Special Conservation Zone. In addition, we will look for traces, footprints and signs that indicate their presence.
We will move quietly through the best lynx territories in our 4x4 vehicle, enjoying the scenery and the tranquility that one of the least inhabited places on the Iberian Peninsula offers. Depending on the time of year, some species or others may be observed.

Later, we will head towards the oil mill to proceed with the guided tour of the interior and carry out the tasting.
