Otero de Sariegos is an uninhabited village located in the municipality of Villafáfila, in the province of Zamora, Castile and León. This place is known for its natural lagoon, which attracts numerous tourists and birdwatchers due to the diversity of species found there.

Historically, Otero de Sariegos has been linked to salt production since prehistoric times. The name "Sariegos" is believed to come from "saliegos," referring to salt producers. During the Middle Ages, salt exploitation reached its peak, and the area was filled with small villages dedicated to this activity.

Although currently uninhabited, the site remains of interest for its historical and natural value.

We are in Otero de Sarriegos, very close to the Salina Grande Lagoon. Here we can see the church, located at the entrance of the town or the nature observatory, built by the Castilla y León government in 1990, from where you can see the birds that fly over the Salina Grande Lagoon.

If we feel like it and we have time, it is always worth going to the Casa del Parque de Villafáfila (€2 adults) next to the road. lagunasdevillafafila.es/centro-de-interpretacion-de-las-lagunas/la-casa-del-parque
