Description
To the south of the famous hills of Ubeda, the Guadalquivir River was repressed in the 1950s in a succession of three small reservoirs: Doña Aldonza (301 hectares), Pedro Marín (240 hectares) and Puente de la Cerrada (122 hectares).
The whole area of this artificial wet area - with an increasingly important water vegetation belt - is surrounded by crops.
The palustre vegetation of these swamps is basically made up of eneas and canes, accompanied by beets and tarays and on their shores are mainly developed the alms.
While, as far as fauna is concerned, an abundant and varied community of aquatic birds is concentrated in these reservoirs of Alto Guadalquivir, highlighting the colony of squid (species catalogued as threatened at community level), royal ducks and spoons, as well as imperial porrones and garzas.
The total area of this natural area, whose reference locations are Ubeda and Jódar, is 663 hectares.
