At Hotel Posada del Valle we will be organising a guided walk for hotel guests every Tuesday and Thursday in April, May, June, September and October. Nigel Burch, an experienced and accredited guide, will normally lead these walks. He will help you discover and understand this stunning region interpreting the landscape around you. During the walk there will be plenty of time to look at the wild flowers and the wild life, in particular the many birds of prey. We will learn about the traditional farming methods, still practised in parts of this unspoilt area, but in danger of being lost. These guided walks are designed to help you discover and understand the cultural heritage of this unique rural mountain region.
