The Opus Foundation is a non-profit organisation, registered as an environmental entity in the Registry of Foundations of Andalusia. Its main objective and mission is the recovery of habitats, with the aim of carrying out a process of rewilding (renaturalisation) on the Opus Foundation’s land.

The OPUS foundation has provided the necessary funding to acquire the land for the Antequera Entorno Natural Project.

Antequera Entorno Natural is a project designed for the harmonious and balanced interaction of local communities with the nature that surrounds them. With this project, we seek to rehabilitate the area and return it to its original state, protecting present and future biodiversity.

Antequera Entorno Natural is constantly evolving, carrying out various works and improvement processes, not only for the reforestation and recovery of the ecosystem, but also to be able to count, in the coming months, with facilities and routes perfectly equipped for your visit and enjoyment.
