Description of the Hunt

This is a great hunting experience that starts with the arrival of the hunters to the international airport of Málaga. After collecting the weapons, also possible to rent riffle by us, we will drive to the hotel PARADOR DE CAZORLA, about 2h30min form the airport.

The Hotel Parador de Cazorla is located in the heart of the Sierra de Cazorla Nature Reserve, in an area known as Sacejo, offering an oasis of peace in a natural setting. The altitude provides matchless panoramic views of mountain slopes covered in pine trees. Only the sound of the birds will interrupt your relaxation beside the hotel pool or strolls through the surrounding area. The hotel revisits the tradition of classic Andalusian country houses, which is abundantly clear from the exterior. The swimming pool with spectacular views of the nature reserve, and the light-filled interior, with a lounge where you can enjoy pleasant afternoon chats beside the fireplace, make the Parador an inviting spot.
