Mula-river

Mula river restoration project. Municipalities of Mula and Albudeite (Murcia).

The Mula river, a tributary of the Segura on its right margin and with a length of approximately 64 km, has its source at the Fuentes de Mula, 670 meters above sea level, and recieves significant water inputs from the Buret, Lavia, Ceperos, Plaza de los Pastores and El Charco sloping riverbeds. The section subject to ecological improvement goes downstream from the Cierva dam up to the border between the municipalities of Albudeite and Campos del Río, for an approximate length of 18 km.

In order to achieve the goals of the National River Restoration Strategy, the project aims at improving the ecological condition of this section of the river, currently degraded by the alteration of its natural flow and other human-induced stresses (invasion of non-native species, stress due to agricultural activities, etc.) which are causing the decline of the riverbank ecosystem.
