Semana Santa Estepa

Seville enchants

This Greenway has a Protected Natural Area: the ZIC (Zone of Community Importance) Laguna de Fuente de Piedra.

San Nicolás del Puerto

San Nicolás del Puerto is a small town but with an enormous and long history. The first civilisations (it is thought that there were Celtic settlements) gave way to the expanding Roman Empire.

The Sierra Greenway alternates between the provinces of Seville and Cadiz. Coripe, El Coronil and Montellano are the mountain villages on the Seville side.

All these villages, immersed in the Sierra Sur of Seville, are typical of the region, with whitewashed walls, flowerpots and Moorish roofs.

The walk starts next to the La Roda de Andalucía municipal football ground. Leaving the football ground to the right, a compacted sandy path begins, along which, after just 300 m, you cross the bridge over the channelled Salinoso stream.

This route starts at the Plaza del Ayuntamiento of Villamanrique de la Condesa, and goes down Calle Sor María del Coro until reaching a crossroads. At this point, it crosses the road and follows the Green Corridor indications. Further on, there is a crossroads between two drovers’ road, the Cañada de Los Isleños and the Cañada de La Marisma Gallega.

This path begins in Calle Santa María following the lane that leads to the Hoya de Santa María de la Nava la Zapatera. Follow the lane parallel to the Víbora stream, whose course, which is almost dry in summer, forms the natural boundary with Extremadura. After two kilometres, the path crosses the stream.

Almadén de la Plata

The origins of this town date back to Roman times. It was a small village, whose main source of wealth came from the marble quarries, called Pagus Marmorarius, which translated from Latin means "village of the marbles".
