Doñana National and Natural Park

Doñana National Park encompasses wetlands, moving dunes, and pine forests extending across the provinces of Huelva, Seville, and Cadiz in southern Spain.

The park received national park status on October 16, 1969, to protect its natural ecosystems and endangered species from extinction.

Local traditions continue with the Saca de Yeguas, an annual gathering of wild horses organized by ranchers for more than five centuries.

The visitor centers El Acebuche and José Antonio Valverde offer hiking trails, cycling paths, and guided tours to explore the park.

The park houses over 230 bird species and serves as an essential site for the reproduction of the Iberian lynx and Spanish imperial eagle.
