The Iberian wolf (Canis lupus signatus) remains one of the most elusive and symbolic species in Portugal.
Rather than seeking direct sightings, this experience focuses on interpreting signs of presence — footprints, markings, territory patterns — guided by local ecological knowledge.
You will learn how wolves interact with the landscape, prey and human activity in the Alvão region.
Beyond the wolf, Alvão Natural Park is home to a diverse ecosystem shaped by altitude, geology and water.
During the experience, you may observe:
Birds of prey such as peregrine falcons
Amphibian-rich streams and wetlands
Native flora adapted to granite and schist terrains
Traditional rural landscapes shaped by centuries of coexistence
