The Natural Park of Lake Sanabria is a geological sanctuary situated in the north-west of Zamora Province. Its origin goes back to Würm's glaciation about 10,000 years ago, as an imposing glacier with an iced tongue more than 20 km carved this basin. Today, it's the largest natural freshwater lake in Spain and a unique ecosystem of crystal clear waters surrounded by tidal and mountain waters.
Active Tourism and Beaches of the Interior
Unlike other natural parks, Sanabria allows complete interaction with the environment. Visitors can enjoy:
Rivers: Areas such as Custa Llago and Viquiella offer fine sands and waters suitable for bathing in summer.
Environmental cruiser: The first eolithic-solar catamaran of the world goes through the lake and looks at the underwater bottom by means of cameras.
Hiking: Iconic routes as an ascent to the Tera Canyon or an ascent to the Sotillo Falls.
Culture and Tradition: San Martín de Castañeda and Puebla de Sanabria
The Natural Park cannot be understood without its peoples. San Martín de Castañeda offers one of the best panoramic views from its Cistercian monastery, while its closeness with Puebla de Sanabria (one of the most beautiful peoples of Spain) adds an unparalleled historic and artistic value to the rural escape.
Practical guide for your visit in 2026
To preserve the environment, access to Lake Sanabria has regulated parking spaces at high season. It's recommended to visit the Park House in Rabanillo to get up-to-date maps. The best time for hiking is spring and autumn, while summer is ideal for water sports without motor. < / p > < / Section >
