 WHAT TO VISIT

IBERIAN WOLF RECOVERY CENTRE


Spend a different morning visiting the Iberian Wolf Recovery Centre, in Gradil – Mafra. In full harmony with nature, the route is accompanied by a guide who introduces you to the Iberian Wolf and reveals surprising curiosities.

The Iberian Wolf Recovery Centre was created by Grupo Lobo, in 1987, with the aim of creating a suitable environment for the animals of this subspecies that, as they are frequent victims of traps or illegal captivity, cannot live in freedom.

The visit to the 18 hectares of land in the centre follows a route that crosses an isolated valley, immersed in a wood where, here and there, a curious wolf appears. The Iberian wolf, the subspecies that inhabits the Iberian Peninsula, has the scientific name of Canis lupus signatus.

Here you will be able to learn about the extraordinary work of this centre, whose essential purpose is the welfare of wolves, fighting false ideas, transmitted for centuries, about the supposed aggressiveness of these animals.
