Discover the wonders of Sierra Morena and the Sierra de Andújar Natural Park, in the heart of wild Spain. Here, among unspoiled landscapes and wooded hills, lives one of the last and most precious populations of Iberian lynx, the rarest and most threatened feline in Europe.
These territories are home to one of the highest densities of Iberian lynx in the Iberian Peninsula. Thanks to decades of conservation projects, the population has exceeded 1,000 specimens, an incredible achievement if we consider that until a few decades ago less than a hundred survived.
During our photography tour in Spain, you will have the unique opportunity to immerse yourself in these protected habitats, photographing the lynx in full respect of its natural behavior. It will be an intense and engaging experience, combining nature photography, discovery and conservation.
Get ready to take unforgettable shots, witness the rebirth of an iconic species and experience the authentic magic of the Iberian fauna.

Experience six intense days of nature photography in the heart of the Sierra Morena, in search of the legendary Iberian lynx.
With exclusive access to photo hides positioned over strategic waterholes, we will be able to observe and photograph lynx and other species as they drink during the hot summer days.
You will be able to witness intimate and natural behaviors — such as the parental care of the lynx towards its cubs — and capture unique moments with your camera, in perfect conditions of light and camouflage.
But the lynx will not be the only protagonist: the area is also home to the green woodpecker, the great spotted woodpecker, the red partridge, the pheasant, the little owl, the long-tailed tit, the hoopoe, the turtle dove and numerous small mammals such as the wild rabbit.
A tour designed for those who love authentic nature photography, far from the tourist circuits, with a very high photographic potential and a strong naturalistic and conservationist value.
The tour includes eight nature photography sessions inside professional photography huts, strategically positioned in the territories frequented by the Iberian lynx and numerous other wild species.
Our sheds are designed to ensure optimal conditions: natural settings, perfect light and 4 mm anti-reflective glass that allows for impeccable rendering of details and colours, even at close range, without disturbing the animals.
With cabins for 2 to 8 people, we can divide participants into small groups, giving everyone the opportunity to make the most of their favorite locations.
The goal is to experience photography in harmony with nature, without interference, following the rhythm of the animals and the environment. The Iberian lynx will be the absolute protagonist, but there will be other incredible photographic opportunities.
We will stay in a comfortable and strategically located structure near the photographic hides. For the main meals (lunch and dinner), we will move a few steps away, to a typical local restaurant.
The hotel is located in a quiet and peaceful area, away from tourist flows, in a small authentic village in the Spanish hinterland.
It has all the comforts: air conditioning, Wi-Fi, hairdryer and bar service.
The staff is friendly and helpful, making this a perfect place to recharge between photo sessions. An ideal environment for those seeking relaxation, authenticity and immersion in nature.
