ENVIRONMENTAL EDUCATION
To preserve a place -and be sustainable- education is essential. Therefore, this is one of the fundamental work axes of the organization.
Approximately 7% of the visitors (about 1500 young people) are educational/health groups, that use the space as an outdoor classroom.
Some activities related to environmental education are scholar internships (from high schools and universities); art/nature contests, and training courses, and training courses; among others. There's also an exclusive specific "environmental education area", created to visit children and young people (students) at school.
** Educational visits are without charge, and interpretative school tours are provided (with an order in advance).
