It is also one of Spain's best spots for stargazing, with Turismo Astronómico de Granada offering nighttime experiences like stargazing and hot air balloon flights over the park. 🦅 Parque Nacional y Natural de Doñana #ParqueNacionalyNaturalDeDoñana #Andalucia #Biodiversity Situated on the Atlantic coast of Andalucía, Parque Nacional y Natural de Doñana is one of Europe's most biologically diverse natural conservation areas. Explore its shifting dunes, plains, and swamps on foot, horseback, or by SUV, and witness waterbirds feeding and nesting during spring and summer. With luck, you might even spot the Iberian lynx, the world's most endangered cat and Europe's largest native cat, roaming in the pine forests and thickets.
