The Drives

The setting and the topography of the estate are unrivalled. The terrain is formed by hills, mountains and ravines. There are also numerous cultivated areas with game crops. This provides an ideal habitat for red-legged partridge.

Another important feature of Ventosilla is that a great part of the estate is located in the shores of Lake Castrejon. The marshy borders of Lake Castrejon and the river provide a beautiful landscape and excellent habitat for game.
