Description

The restoration of the Manzanares riverbed has transformed the environment of this river as it passes through Madrid into an ecological corridor in which we can find typical riverbank species such as Grey Heron, Great Cormorant, Little Egret, Common Kingfisher, Grey Wagtail or Mallard among others, who have decided to repopulate this stretch of the river to which the lost vitality has been restored.
