Description

Parque Salburua is a wetland on the eastern outskirts of the city of Vitoria-Gasteiz. The area contains lakes, meadows and oak groves. It was drained in the 19th century to transform the area into farmland. Restoration work started in 1994 and has reversed this situation and now Salburua is a Ramsar Wetland of International Importance. The area has easy access and good roads. Wonderful to walk. Two covered observatories. Among the birds you can see are Широконоска, Чирок-свистунок, Серый гусь, Хохлатая чернеть, Серый журавль, Иволга, Обыкновенный зимородок, Чёрный коршун, Болотный лунь, Колпица, Бекас, Ходулочник and Шилоклювка.
