Unique nature, stunning landscapes
Los Montes de Toledo son naturaleza. Conviven aquí las extensas rañas y las agrestes sierras que albergan en su interior toda la variedad de flora y fauna, cuyos colores, olores y sonidos llenan nuestros sentidos con la esencia del bosque mediterráneo.
En la espesura de sus robledales se esconden historias de bandoleros y golfines. Nacientes de ríos, mares de nubes, bosques perdidos… el viajero encuentra en las sierras lugares donde jugar con los sentidos, transportándose a tiempos pretéritos, disfrutando del fluir de las aguas cristalinas, impregnándose de la esencia del ládano…
Las llanuras extensas son el lugar ideal para recrearnos con la contemplación de la fauna autóctona. La vista se pierde en el horizonte y el bramido del ciervo retumba en nuestro interior. Formamos parte por un instante de la naturaleza más primitiva, el ambiente nos transporta a las sabanas africanas, donde los grandes herbívoros pastan entre los árboles que salpican el paisaje, bajo la atenta mirada del águila imperial y del buitre negro.
