Tuesday’s activities include the Ruta del Montes, where participants can admire the tradition of stripping of the cork oaks. The route will begin from the Venta de Socorro at 8am.
A multi-adventure day for children aged between five and 15, which will offer box climbing, a zip wire and archery, will take place in the Asalto del Cura area between 10am and 1pm on Wednesday.
