Semana Santa Estepa

Seville enchants

The importance of the iron mining sector in Andalusia during its heyday is made clear at this old mining site. It consists of an old mine, active until the mid-20th century, as well as lifts, shafts and galleries (some transitable).

The Pyrenean oak is a deciduous tree rarely found in Andalusia and classified as a vulnerable species in the Andalusian Catalogue of Threatened Wildlife.

Located in the Sierra Norte Natural Park, the chestnut grove in Constantina is of great interest, as the chestnut is not a very common tree in the Sierra Norte. In addition to those found in Constantina, there are some spots in Cazalla de la Sierra and the odd isolated specimen in other places.

This route has been declared of tourist interest and is promoted by the Vía Verde de la Sierra Sierra Foundation.

Los Tajillos is located on the northern edge of the Sierra de Estepa, commonly known as Becerrero, very close to the town of Estepa. 

This site is part of the Sierra del Becerrero, and has been declared a Site of Environmental Interest. 

The geographical location of the El Gergal Peri-urban Park, located between the lower foothills of the Sierra Morena and the right bank of the Guadalquivir River, has led to the confluence of various interesting natural and cultural attractions in the area, along with a wide range of recreational and leisure activities.

The lakes are a beauty spot located in the lower foothills of the Sierra Morena. Their main arteries are the Rivera de Cala and the reservoir with the same name.

The nearest town, about 3 kilometres away, is El Ronquillo, although this beautiful natural spot is located in the municipality of Guillena.
