A whistle sharper than that of a kite bounces off the huge rocky walls of the Aragonese Pyrenees. And suddenly, the bone of some animal, already dead for a couple of days, falls from the highest in the sky, breaking on contact with the sharp rock. This is how the Bearded Vulture – Gypaetus barbatus – feeds. It is the last link in the exploitation of scavenger birds. A spectacle worthy of observing and photographing.
The largest concentration of Bearded Vultures in Europe is concentrated in the Pyrenees. We are fortunate to have a population of about 100 breeding pairs. It is one of the most impressive birds in the Spanish territory. Not in vain, along with the Black and Griffon Vulture, it is the largest bird that lives and flies over our territory.
Enjoy the opportunity to observe closely the bearded vulture, a bird of great beauty. Live an exclusive weekend, knowing and respecting this beautiful bird that little by little is recovering its populations.
Although the main species of the weekend is the Bearded Vulture, we will not overlook other species such as marmots, vipers, wallcreepers, black woodpeckers and a long etcetera of wildlife that we will try to observe on our walks.
We will stay in a small family establishment at the entrance of the National Park of Ordesa and Monte Perdido in the heart of the Aragonese Pyrenees.
