In the heart of the Spanish-Portuguese border lies the Tajo Internacional Biosphere Reserve, a unique territory where nature and human activity have coexisted in balance for centuries. Declared a Biosphere Reserve by UNESCO, this area is one of the most outstanding ecotourism destinations on the Iberian Peninsula, offering visitors an authentic experience based on the conservation of natural, cultural, and scenic heritage.

The Tagus River, the backbone of the territory, has shaped a landscape of spectacular cliffs, dehesa (pastureland), Mediterranean forests, and extensive areas of high ecological value that harbor extraordinary biodiversity. Imperial eagles, black vultures, black storks, and numerous other emblematic species find one of their last refuges here, making wildlife observation one of the most appealing experiences for those seeking a respectful connection with nature.

The Tajo Internacional Biosphere Reserve invites you to discover its landscapes through trails, cycling routes, river excursions, and interpretive experiences that allow you to understand the environmental and cultural richness of this cross-border territory. Its villages preserve ancestral traditions, architecture linked to the environment, and a gastronomy based on local products that reflect the identity of the Mediterranean dehesa (pastureland).

More than just a tourist destination, the Tajo Internacional represents a model of sustainable development where the conservation of natural resources becomes an opportunity to generate well-being, retain the local population, and promote responsible tourism. Each visit contributes to valuing and preserving an exceptional space, where travelers can enjoy nature consciously, participating in an enriching experience that connects landscape, culture, and sustainability.

Discovering the Tajo Internacional Biosphere Reserve is to delve into a land of contrasts, tranquility, and authenticity, where every path, every viewpoint, and every encounter with nature becomes an invitation to travel in a more sustainable and respectful way.

“In the Tajo Internacional Natural Park, a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, the traditional olive grove is a living ecosystem and a valuable cultural legacy.

With the Aceitolivex Almazara’s Sponsor an Olive Tree program, we invite you to become an active part of this unique landscape.

Sponsoring an olive tree is not only about creating life, but also about contributing to reducing your carbon footprint: each tree can absorb approximately 25 kg of CO₂ per year, and each liter of our oil helps reduce up to 10 kg of CO₂.
