We visited on a sunny and warm Sunday afternoon at 6pm. There were still 100's of families, couples and guided parties walking round the various routes. We were lucky though to have a guide who was able to explain quite alot in English. The levels of water have fallen due to the dry weather and this has pushed the wildlife further away from the walkways and viewing areas. I suggest you either take a pair of binoculars with you or go on a guided walk that provides them. I think the best time to visit if you want to see as much wildlife and in particular the birdlife is in the mornings and from Monday to Friday as the numbers of people visiting are significantly lower than at the weekends. There are toilets situated at the start of your journey so I would say if you need to go do it before you set off walking. There is also a small shop selling souvenirs as well as snacks, water and ice cream etc. Try to visit in April and May or even earlier as the water levels drop as the summer months approach. On the plus side if you have travelled in a campervan or you are towing a caravan, you can stay overnight in one of the grassed car parks. Remember to bring your own food as Daimiel is about 14km away.👍👍👍👍

Peace, tranquility and surrounded by nature. That is how everyone should spend at least one day every few months! Las Tablas is free, a lovely walk while admiring, small birds, geese, ducks, etc. The trees are amazing! There is a boardwalk to get you over the wetlands safely and to get you as close as you can to admire the scenery. There is a big parking area, restrooms, visitors center, observation area, and plenty of benches along the walk to take a rest if you need too. A wheelchair can make it through with some help (through some dirt areas). This is a very nice National Park which has been under the government's protection for over 50 years. I totally recommend a visit.

Espectacular Parque Nacional que este año, después de las lluvias y el mejor torrente fluvial de los dos rios que lo nutren, el Gugüela y el Guadiana. Hacía mucho tiempo en que no se veían las Tablas en tan buena forma este 2025 aunque no estaban al 100%. Las tablas están entre los pueblos de Daimiel, de ahí su nombre y Villarrubia de los Ojos, por los ojos del Guadiana de Ciudad Real y pertenecientes a la Comunidad de Castilla-La Mancha. Es uno de los más importantes humedales de la Península ibérica y en este entorno viven, se crían o están de paso, más de 2.000 especies de aves. Hace años, la industria que daba dinero y trabajo a la comunidad que vivía en la alrededores, era el cangrejo de río autóctono y que ha desaparecido por la intrusión del cangrejo americano. El parque está aún en serio peligro fundamentalmente por la explotación exagerada y sin control de los acuíferos. Tanto Europa como la UNESCO reprobó a España por la dejadez en la conservación de este maravilloso y frágil ecosistema. Las Tablas de Daimiel fueron declaradas Parque Nacional en 1973. Hay dos formas de visitar el Parque, a pie y un tour en furgoneta por el extrarradio del parque. El primero a pie se recorren unos 2,5 km y en ambos casos es con guía que es lo recomendable. También se puede visitar por los caminos permitidos, sin guia pero como en digo, recomiendo contratar con tiempo el tour guiado. Los.mejores meses son primavera y otoño. En verano el calor aprieta mucho. Importante llevar repelente de mosquitos. Muy recomendable.

Friendly, helpful lady in visitor centre, who explained the current water shortages and how water is provided to maintain some good habitat for water birds. On the day, protesters had closed the main road to Daimiel, so I detoured by Villarubio de los Ojos. I expected Google maps would take me on the minor road to Daimiel town but Google maps was rubbish, taking me along rough farm tracks, told me to turn left onto a field - no tracks within 200m. It insisted on directing me to a hide...
