The reservoir's natural environment is listed as a Site of Community Interest, notable for its biodiversity and the presence of species such as the Iberian lynx, the black stork, and various birds of prey.

Furthermore, on one of its banks is Tamujoso Beach, a popular area for sports activities such as canoeing and sailing.
