There are many travel agencies, companies, organisations and professional guides in the Ebre-Secans-Pirineus corridor who have in-depth knowledge of the region and the bird species that can be observed and photographed
We advise you to take advantage of the services they offer to enjoy truly memorable birding experiences.
The aim of this project, led by the Espais Naturals de Ponent association, is to convert old dry stone huts and shelters into observatories for wildlife, especially birds. So far, two structures have been restored with new viewing windows, one in Castellserà and the other in Preixana. Preserving cultural heritage through birdwatching tourism.
This initiative is based in an abandoned village that has now been restored for ecotourism, with photographers’ hides, photography courses and workshops and a rural home offering tourist accommodation (Casa Felip). The hides overlook a feeding station, allowing photographers to capture spectacular images of golden eagles, bearded vultures and other scavengers.
Minerva Sellés has set up these hides in Vallbona de les Monges to allow birdwatchers to observe and photograph various species of birds at very close range. She also offers idyllic rural accommodation in peaceful surroundings (Cal Baster).
In this nature reserve, managed by SEO/BirdLife, work is being done to demonstrate that organic rice farming is compatible with the recovery of natural wetlands. It contains an elevated hide with superb views over a lagoon, as well as a visitor centre built in a traditional hut.
This foundation works to conserve the ecosystems and species of the Ebro Delta and offers a range of activities for birders. These include “BiciBirding”, a hybrid birdwatching experience on wheels, and the large wooden “Photo Hides” on Picampall Island for photographing birds at close range.
This feeding station for birds of prey located in Tartareu has two fully-equipped and well-camouflaged hides from which birdwatchers can closely observe and photograph the main species of scavengers. The purpose of the feeding station is to protect, promote and exploit wildlife, and to preserve their ecosystems.
