Antequera Lobo Park — A nature reserve for the conservation and study of wolves in Andalusia.

Lobo Park Antequera: A Unique Wolf Sanctuary in Andalusia

Dive into the fascinating world of wolves at Lobo Park Antequera, a unique nature reserve and conservation centre in the province of Málaga. Founded in 2002, this 400,000 square metre park is not a zoo, but a home where wolves live in semi-freedom, in an environment that respects their wild nature. Through education and research, Lobo Park seeks to demystify the figure of the wolf and promote its protection.

Located at the foot of the stunning Sierra de El Torcal and just 15 minutes from the historic town of Antequera, the park offers an immersive experience for the whole family. As well as being home to several subspecies of wolves, it also houses other rescued animals such as foxes and farm animals, making it a perfect destination for nature lovers and curious travellers.

Discover the Wolf Species

Lobo Park is home to four subspecies of wolves, each with its own history and unique characteristics. During your guided tour, you can learn about the biology, behaviour, and hierarchy of these majestic creatures from strategically placed viewpoints.

Iberian Wolf (Canis lupus signatus)

Native to the Iberian Peninsula, this wolf is a symbol of Spanish fauna. It is estimated that about 2,000-2,500 specimens live in the wild, mainly in north-western Spain. Its coat varies between grey and brown tones, and they are known for their strong social structure.

European Wolf (Canis lupus lupus)

Found in countries such as Russia, Poland, and Romania, this wolf has a dense coat adapted to cold climates. They are robust and social animals, with packs that function as complex family units.

North American Wolves

Timber and Hudson Bay Wolves — A majestic Timber wolf, one of the largest subspecies, together with the Iberian wolf.

The park is also home to the Canadian Timber Wolf (Canis lupus occidentalis), one of the largest subspecies with a coat that varies between grey, black, and white, and the Hudson Bay Wolf (Canis lupus hudsonicus), native to the Arctic regions of Canada, known for its almost white coat. Their presence in the park demonstrates the adaptability of the species to different climates and environments.
