Discover the magical centre in this reserve to find out about nature and sustainability.
The centre is situated in an exceptionally beautiful place: in Dehesa de Boyal de Trujillanos, a farmhouse between the Aljucén and Albarregas rivers. The pastures and plains have been a Nature Reserve since 2004. The building is inspired by a typical Extremadura country house, and its different themed rooms provide information on the ecosystem, species, the importance of nature and the reserve's history. You can also get information on recommended routes in this area.
