The 'El Vecino' estate, located in Calzada de Don Diego, 20 km from Salamanca, covers an area of 350 hectares. It is home to part of the cattle, the bull calves, young bulls, and yearlings, and is where the cattle-handling tasks are carried out, as well as the monitoring of the bulls and young bulls. This estate breeds bulls known for their size, build, and presence, which experts refer to as 'good looks.' In addition to enjoying a guided tour through the different enclosures, allowing visitors to observe the cows, yearlings, young bulls, and bulls up close, the estate also features a bullring where the endurance and bravery of the bulls are tested. A tasting of local products, including their own Iberian cured meats, is a great way to conclude the visit or take a break during the day. The El Vecino estate also shares the breeding of fighting cattle with a sheep and Iberian pig fattening farm, providing a unique opportunity to learn about the breeding of other types of livestock.
