Alagón + Alcántara Reservoir Boat Trip
At the time of your choice, we'll meet at the El Bañaero jetty on the José María Oriol reservoir, also known as the Alcántara reservoir. There we'll board a boat and begin a boat trip on these waters.
First, we'll approach the concrete wall of the Alcántara dam, inaugurated at the end of the 1960s to regulate the flow of the Tagus river.
Then we'll leave the Alcántara reservoir to enjoy a boat trip on the river Alagón, the longest tributary of the Tagus. We'll see the quarry, from which the material was extracted to build the dam, and we'll observe the wildlife that inhabits this riverside area.
We'll sail through a natural environment known for its varied bird life. We'll use binoculars to spot as many birds as possible, with a chance to see griffon vultures and black storks.
After an hour and a half of sailing, we will finish the boat trip arriving back at the departure pier.
