Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
We are in the Sierra de Gata, north of Cáceres. Close to Portugal and Salamanca, and 8 km from Moraleja, which is a small city with all services. We are located on the edge of the reservoir, a hibernation center for more than 8,000 cranes that come to visit us every year. From here, we do annual censuses, and tours to observe them at their traditional feeders and roosts. We also participate in environmental education projects for children. The large number of nationalities and origins from the peninsula and the islands of people who have chosen the Sierra de Gata to live is striking. Awakened, curious people, interested in enjoying another way of life surrounded by authentic nature. Of the most varied activities that make the cultural and social life of this enclave bustle every day.
Estamos en la Sierra de Gata, norte de Cáceres. Cerquita de Portugal y de Salamanca, y a 8 kms de Moraleja, que es una pequeña ciudad con todos los servicios. Nos ubicamos a la orilla del pantano, centro de hibernada de más de 8.000 grullas que vienen cada año a visitarnos. Desde aquí, hacemos censos anuales, y recorridos para observarlas en sus comederos y dormideros tradicionales. También participamos en proyectos de educación ambiental para niños. Es llamativo el gran número de nacionalidades y procedencias de la península y las islas de gente que ha elegido la Sierra de Gata para vivir. Gente despierta, curiosa, con interés en disfrutar de otra forma de vida rodeados de una naturaleza auténtica. De actividades de lo más variopinto que hacen que la vida cultural y social de este enclave bulla cada día.
