19th - 22nd October 2025

Step into a forgotten rhythm of life with three unforgettable days walking, foraging, and stalking game alongside a true man of the land who has called the remote valley of Taramona home for over two decades. With no phone, no car, and no hurry, Jose María knows every trail, thicket, and whisper of this pristine natural park. Follow him through rugged hills and secret glades as he tracks wild boar and deer, and shares his deep knowledge of local flora like wild asparagus and prized boletus mushrooms. Each day ends with rustic luxury: remote picnics with sweeping views, fireside feasts of local delicacies, and the quiet comfort of our restored cortijo.

6th-9th November 2025

Spend 3 days in our olive grove with local characters harvesting olives and making Organic Extra Virgin olive oil with our own press. And of course take some home with you !

In the harvesting months we usually spend the whole day in the olive grove, some of us picking olives, the children are free to play hide and seek, turn over a stone, build a den or even help picking, and some of us light a fire and cook a delicious stew or chorizo to feed the hungry workers. In the evenings, we light candles lay a beautiful table and huddle round a warm fire. This is the perfect weekend away with your children or friends. There is nothing better then being outside all day ! and no better reward then the taste of fresh olive oil.

Example Itinerary

Thursday night - Settle in for a beautiful dinner at taramona.

Friday - Harvest olives all morning, lunch on the fire in the olive grove, siesta under a tree, a little more picking if it suits. Enjoy a nice warm shower in our tented camp and beautiful dinner under the stars before settling for a quiet nights sleep in one of our rajasthani tents.

Saturday - Spend the day processing the olives and bottling . We will show you how we take the olive from its fresh fruit form to to its juice and then oil in our very own press.
