A Day in The Doñana National Park
The last day of the trip will be full of nature. You will visit the Doñana National Park, one of the most important nature reserves in Europe where various ecosystems such as dunes, pines forest and marshes coexist.
The marshes are the breeding and passage area for more than a thousand species of African and European birds, making the park a very good place for birdwatching. Children can be very interested in this activity.
As well as watching birds and other animals such as the Iberian lynx, you can go hiking and choose from activities such as 4x4 tours or horseback riding (activities must be booked in advance). Ready?
