Gallocanta is a lagoon that functions as the most important single stopover site for migrating Cranes in Spain. It also holds an interesting array of wetland birds when its water level permits, while its shores are visited by steppeland birds and raptors. The European Union has designated it as a Special Protection Area. Visit it at sunrise and you'll be thrilled with the sounds and images of thousands of cranes waking up and migrating to nearby fields to find food for the day.
