The Peñon Nature Reserve Park will be offering activities for children in the months of July and August. The children can be archaeologists for the day or play games in the park. The older children can participate in guided tours by day or night. All these activities are free.

The daytime tours will be on Friday mornings and the night time ones on Tuesdays. All the tours will be in small groups and it is therefore advisable to book.
