  • Wildlife haven site in the Sierra de la Culebra
  • On the banks of a river with spectacular views of Valparaiso reservoir
  • Direct access to a beach; bar-restaurant terrace with beach views
Spanish nature hol, anyone? With spectacular reservoir views, a sandy beach… and a Castile and Leon setting among the wildlife haven of the Sierra de la Culebra? Make for Camping Los Molinos. Wildlife – and wolf – spotters will be in their element around here: the 95-kilometre stretch of the Sierra de la Culebra is famed in Europe as one of the last remaining habitats of the Iberian wolf, who roam around this Iberian Peninsula setting of north-western Spain and north-eastern Portugal. Montesinho Natural Park, within the mountain range and over the border in Portugal, is home too to roe and red deer, wild boar, foxes, otters and Iberian lynxes; in the other direction, birdwatching is at the wetlands around Vinhais an hour’s drive away. The site is in the Zamora Province, by the Tera river and close to the clear waters of Valparaiso reservoir which can be seen from the Molinos grounds. It has direct access to a small beach for sunbathing, kayaking, swimming and fishing… if this sounds a tad too energetic, claim a spot on the bar-restaurant terrace for beach views. There’s an indoor dining room at the restaurant too, as well as a big woodburning barbecue grilling fresh local meat.

What customers say

This campsite offers a lovely lakeside/riverside spot, praised for its natural beauty and quiet. Reviewers often mention the clean, modern washrooms. The on-site bar/restaurant gets good remarks for food and views. Staff are generally friendly, but some note site maintenance could be better. Noise from fellow campers, especially late, has bothered some. Pitch sizes are described as small by a few, and shade is sometimes lacking. Watersports and lake access are highlights.

Power optional grass and earth RV campsite

Liked Sehr schöner Strand, leckeres Essen im Restaurant (nur mit Reservierung).

Disliked Kein wlan und kein sonstiger Empfang . Parzellen extrem eng, WoMo mit 7,40m gerade so geklappt. Sanitäre Anlagen waren zum abgewöhnen. Dreckig und stinken zum Himmel, schon von außen.

Local attractions

Delve into more local cuisine by buzzing along to the honey centre in Sagallos (five minutes’ drive), or dig some ancient history with a subterranean adventure to see the rock paintings at Linarejos 20 minutes from the site. Architecture aficionados should like the old buildings and ‘hell’s bridge’ at Santa Cruz de los Cuérragos, 25 minutes’ drive east; the same distance to the west, the ancient town of Puebla de Sanabria, one of the oldest in the province, has a fort and a 16th-century castle to potter around, as well as a 13th-century church and the 16th-century town hall. Just west of Puebla de Sanabria, Sanabria Lake 40 minutes from Camping Los Molinos is worth a look: it’s the biggest glacial lake in the Iberian Peninsula and is surrounded by the Sanabria Lake Natural Park. Wildlife thrives in these parts too; drop into the interpretation centre at San Martín de Castañeda for info, set in an old monastery building once owned by medieval Cistercians. Wolf-spotting tours can be booked in Villafafila, an hour and 10 minutes away.
