Are you looking for a getaway in the middle of nature to enjoy with the whole family? El Hosquillo Experimental Hunting Park<\/a>, in the heart of the Serrania de Cuenca<\/strong>, is a perfect destination. Get ready to live an unforgettable experience among deer, wild boars, golden eagles and, of course, the impressive brown bears!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

El Hosquillo offers direct contact with the Iberian fauna in a privileged natural environment. From the first moment, you will feel immersed in a chapter of "Man and the Earth", since this emblematic place was recording location for the famous F\u00e9lix Rodr\u00edguez de la Fuente programme.<\/strong> Ready for adventure?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Close encounter with wildlife:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

One of the first surprises that await you in Hosquillo are the deer, such as Antonia, a deer raised from a young age by man.<\/strong> Because of this, she cannot be reintroduced into the wild, but her presence in the park allows for a close and educational encounter for visitors. Antonia is super affectionate and loves interacting with people! This close encounter is a unique opportunity to learn about the behavior of these animals and the importance of their conservation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition to deer, you can observe other species. Remember that, although observation is a privilege, it is important to keep your distance and respect their space. "You can see them, but don't touch them," as the park guides say.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Majestic birds of prey and the memory of Felix:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Hosquillo is also home to a representation of irrecoverable birds of prey<\/strong> for the natural environment, such as the golden eagles. These majestic birds, with their imposing presence, are a spectacle to behold. Their presence in the park serves an important educational function, allowing visitors to learn about their importance in the ecosystem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As mentioned in the video, Hosquillo has a special connection with F\u00e9lix Rodr\u00edguez de la Fuente, as some episodes of his famous series \u201cEl Hombre y la Tierra\u201d were filmed here. This fact adds historical and cultural value to the visit, transporting us to bygone eras and connecting us with the legacy of this great naturalist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The main course: The brown bears!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Definitely, One of the biggest attractions of Hosquillo is its brown bears<\/strong>The excitement of approaching their enclosure and observing these imposing animals is indescribable. From the walkway, you can see Moss<\/strong>, the alpha male, a bear of about 20 years old that can weigh around 200 kilos. <\/strong>Its size and majesty will take your breath away!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The bears' enclosure covers about 10 hectares, where, although they find some natural food, they are fed by the park staff. Musgo, as the dominant male, is the first to eat. Imagine the amount of food they need! According to the video, they eat six boxes of bread a day, as well as trout from the U\u00f1a fish farm!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
