The Los Rábanos reservoir

Nature · Los Rábanos, Almazán, Soria

The Los Rábanos reservoir is located in the municipality of the same name, in the comarca of Almazán, just 7 kilometres from the provincial capital of Soria. It dams the Duero River, which flows through the east and south-east of the municipality, downstream from the capital, over some ten kilometres; the sheet of water hemmed in between hillsides is a refuge for waterbirds and the most navigable stretch of the river in the province. The surrounding area, with altitudes exceeding 1,100 metres to the north and east, is partly included in the Natura 2000 network as a Site of Community Importance for the banks of the Duero.
