The Tablas de Daimiel

The Tablas de Daimiel

This is a 2-days, linear route, for beginner cyclists who want to discover a couple of treasures of the province of Ciudad Real.

We start with an emblematic wetland, the Tablas de Daimiel, where with a little luck we can spot its aquatic birdlife, in a unique flood plain at the confluence of the Guadiana and Guadiela rivers. And we finish with the Motilla del Azuer, a surprising fortress more than 4000 years old that houses the oldest well on the peninsula.

The Tablas de Daimiel National Park is a protected wetland according to the RAMSAR Convention, as well as being listed as SCI (Site of Community Importance) and as SPA (Special Protection Area) in the Natura 2000 network.

Scheduled itinerary: 

Day 1.- Transport to Puerto Lápice. Ride from Puerto Lápice to Daimiel (44 km), by the Tablas de Daimiel National Park. Visits to the Tablas de Daimiel, and the regional museum in Daimiel. Lodging.
Day 2.- Visit to the Motilla del Azuer. Ride from Daimiel to Manzanares (26 km). Transportation back home.
