‘Volando Voy’ visits the Los Arribes del Duero Natural Park

Volando Voy is a television programme broadcast on Mediaset, in which Jesús Calleja travels around towns and landscapes in Spain, showcasing local stories and personal challenges. One of the most characteristic elements of the programme is the helicopter ride, from which the adventurer and his special guest contemplate the panoramic view of the place chosen as the focus of that recording.

The aim of each episode is to discover surprising places and support initiatives that seek to breathe life into these destinations, combining adventure, culture and excitement in each story.

Let's repopulate Fermoselle: a project with heart

In this special episode, the programme focused on Fermoselle, in the province of Zamora, and its surroundings, within the framework of the Arribes del Duero. The initiative, entitled ‘Let's repopulate Fermoselle’, showed people who decided to commit to rural life:

Alejandra and Omar, for example, bought the Formariz ranch and settled down to live in the heart of the Arribes del Duero. From the helicopter, Jesús Calleja and the future repopulators were able to contemplate the grandeur of the landscape, an experience that left them in love with the region.

The episode was not without surprises and anecdotes that remained etched in everyone's memory. For example, the scene in which Jesús Calleja is very surprised to see a sink in the middle of a cobbled street in Fermoselle. But even more so when he discovers that the tap has no pipes or water supply. A curious detail that reflects the great originality and special character of Fermoselle.

But without a doubt, the best part of this episode was the opportunity to contemplate and enjoy the impressive views of the Arribes del Duero. Even from above, flying over the entire protected area of Los Arribes del Duero in a helicopter. A unique natural spectacle, with canyons, rivers and dreamlike viewpoints.

The helicopter ride is one of the most eagerly awaited and characteristic moments of each episode of the programme ‘Volando Voy’, and on this occasion the excitement was at its peak. The views of Fermoselle and its surroundings were (and are) amazing.
