Descrição

The beautiful and quiet natural area of Cirque d'Archiane is a haven for many vultures such as Grifo-comum (which nests in the area and is very frequently observed), Abutre do Egipto, Abutre-preto and even Quebra-ossos. But also other birds of prey like Águia-cobreira , Gavião da Europa and Águia-calçada. Songbirds are also present like Chapim-preto, Estrelinha-de-poupa, Gralha-de-bico-amarelo, Chamariz-comum and Andorinho-dos-beirais among others.

The clearly marked "Sentier des vautours" (vultures' path) is a circular walk of 5 km that takes you from the small village of Archiane all the way to the end of the circus, where two observation areas have been arranged, with informative signs on vulture breeding cycles and reintroductions. The highest one has a dominant view of the entire cirque, allowing for easy observation of the sky and mountains as well as a stunning view, while a second lower one has a fixed spotting scope pointed towards the specific area of the mountain-face where Grifo-comum are known to nest.
