Once again the terrible state of the tablas de Daimiel National park is in the news.
in July 2022 (when I visited) the water covered area stands at less than 3 percent of the protected area which is below 50 hectares of the more than 3000 hectare national park. Guided visits have stopped and the information centre was closed. The drought and heat of the 2022 summer surely has some effect but I still maintain that mismanagement of the tablas de Daimiel national park over the last few decades is to blame.
Heres my article about the area: https://wildsideholidays.co.uk/tablas-de-daimiel-national-park/
ABS newspaper ran an article in January of 2022: https://www.abc.es/sociedad/abci-lanzan-escasez-agua-tablas-daimiel-202109062034_noticia.html

What a shame…!
When I visited some years ago I had a guided tour with the official company there…. I see on their website that they have cancelled almost all of their tours until October (Or I suppose, the first rains?)
