Description

Context The capea in Salamanca takes place at the Acción Martinamor complex, located less than 15 minutes from the city center. This venue features the best adapted bullring in the province, specifically designed for capea events. During the activity, participants work with year-old heifers (vaquillas añojas) whose horns have been carefully filed down to ensure safety. The experience is offered primarily in spring, summer, and autumn, with full compliance with official safety regulations and on-site medical personnel.

The experience The day begins with a professional equestrian performance, followed by a guided visit to the bull ranch from a mobile viewing platform that provides close-up views of the animals. Participants then take part in the capea itself, facing the heifers in the ring, feeling the energy of the animals and the texture of the ground beneath their feet. The event concludes with a traditional outdoor barbecue, where the aroma of grilled meat blends with festive atmosphere and a free bar.

It suits groups of friends, families with teenagers, and corporate teams seeking a mix of adventure and gastronomy. It is not suitable for people with limited mobility or those who avoid contact with animals.

Local context The Acción Martinamor complex combines traditional bullfighting culture with rural recreation in Salamanca.
