Welcome
to El Arpa - your holiday place at the break of the
migratory birds by the lake of sunny Costa del Sol.
The list of protected
bird species in the "Desfiladero de los
Gaitones" national park is long and interesting -
both with migratory birds and 'permanent residents'.
The migratory birds take
a well-deserved break around the lakes in Southern Spain
before crossing the Streach of Gibraltar and continue
over the Sahara dessert. This gives bird entusiasts a
great opportunity to experience them during their
holidays at the Costa del Sol.
On the marked routes in
the national park there are great possibilties to study
the bird life. However even when relaxing at the terrase
at Cortijo del Arpa you may enjoy the view of the rich
bird life by the lake.
