Description:

The Sierra de Andújar was, at the beginning of the century, the last viable population of Iberian lynx in the world. From here, specimens were sent to the other surviving population, Doñana, where the lack of genetic variability prevented their evolution. The captive breeding centres, which would later become the driving force behind the recovery of the lynx on the peninsula, were also nourished by the felines that survived in the valleys and hills of this mountain range.

More than two decades after the most critical moment for the species, the lynxes of the Sierra Morena still retain a particular mysticism. Watching a lynx on the large granite boulders that form its landscape is a unique experience.

For them we have designed a 4-day tour in which we will visit the best mountain enclaves in search of the elusive feline. With access to some of the best lynx farms, we will combine the public areas of the Sierra de Andújar Natural Park with waiting and exclusive routes, as well as including a lynx hide session to try to get close-up photographs.
