Tablas de Daimiel National Park

Tablas de Daimiel National Park, located in Spain, is a unique wetland wastewater reserve characterized by shallow, interconnected lakes and marshes. It supports diverse bird and plant species and plays a crucial role in maintaining ecological balance. The park's wetlands are fed by underground rivers and seasonal rains, traditionally flooding seasonally. However, over-extraction of groundwater, climate change, and water diversion have caused significant drying, threatening its ecosystems. Efforts are ongoing to restore its natural hydrology and preserve this vital habitat for wildlife and biodiversity.
