AGROECOLOGY AND LIVESTOCK WORKSHOP
In this workshop, we explore organic and zero-kilometer food production in greater depth. We will also learn about the morphology, breeding, and care of endangered native Andalusian livestock breeds living freely on our estate. We will observe the animals in their natural habitat and discover how essential resources such as milk, eggs, wool, and meat—which have sustained human life since ancient times—are obtained.

ECO-ENTREPRENEURSHIP AND SOCIAL ECONOMY WORKSHOP
An interactive dynamic to explore a career path centered on creating and sustaining your own job alongside team members who share your business vision. We will examine real-world eco-entrepreneurship case studies, form teams, and brainstorm creative ideas to address the challenges typically faced when launching a new business dedicated to the social economy and economic and environmental sustainability.

FOSSILS AND GEODIVERSITY WORKSHOP
This workshop introduces us to the fascinating world of rocks in the Serranía de Ronda Geology Interpretation Area through identification keys and simple experiments. It is an engaging introduction to the wonderful realm of stones that helps us understand the geography of the land.

Archaeological Excavation Workshop
An activity focused on learning archaeological research methods to better understand prehistoric societies, their ways of life, and their relationship with the surrounding natural habitat.

LAND ART WORKSHOP
Inspired by nature, this activity aims to provide participants with the skills needed to identify plant remains produced by the forest (fallen leaves, pieces of wood, bark, etc.) and create ephemeral yet precious outdoor sculptures and works of art. It is a technique used to raise awareness about human impact on the natural environment.

ENVIRONMENTAL SCAVENGER HUNT WORKSHOP
An orienteering scavenger hunt through the Mediterranean forest, featuring knowledge tests about emblematic species like Quercus oaks, cooperative and active challenges, and fun games—adapted to each group's level, with environmental education at the heart of every trial.

HEALTH & WELLBEING WORKSHOP
Nurturing activities for both body and mind, helping you unwind, embrace the present moment, and cultivate wholesome everyday habits: mindful nature walks, physio-yoga, mindfulness, laughter therapy, meditation, as well as wholesome nutrition and holistic wellbeing.

Traditional Crafts Workshop
For centuries, the rural world has developed artisanal crafts capable of meeting fundamental daily needs using local resources, creating beautiful items cherished for their usefulness—such as woven hampers, baskets, woollen blankets, ceramic vessels, soaps, and botanical essences. These sustainable creations have minimal to no environmental impact and shape our identity as part of a living heritage that is now on the verge of disappearing. This workshop seeks to keep this ancestral knowledge alive, introducing you to traditional crafting techniques, the qualities of raw natural materials, and the joy of creating by hand.

Ceramics Workshop
A hands-on workshop crafting prehistoric ceramic vessels or engraved slate plaques. An engaging educational activity exploring the transformation of raw clay into pottery through natural material processing, hand-shaping, decorating, and air-drying.

Cave Painting Workshop
An activity focused on discovering prehistoric graphic art through the study of ancient materials and artistic techniques. Participants will craft their own pieces of art, guided step-by-step through traditional methods.
