The "Ruta del Agua" – a circular route from Guillena via Castilblanco de los Arroyos – immerses you in a vibrant Andalusian landscape, following the course of the Rivera de Huelva and offering spectacular views of the Embalse del Gergal reservoir. It's a mountain bike route of moderate difficulty, covering 53.8 kilometers with an accumulated elevation gain of 706 meters, and will take you approximately 4 hours and 42 minutes to complete. The route is a mix of unpaved tracks, trails, and some asphalt sections, ideal for those seeking a varied experience and direct contact with nature.
To plan your visit, note that a 14-kilometer section within the municipality of Guillena is free of motorized traffic, ensuring a more peaceful cycling experience. Along the way, you'll find points of interest such as La Cantina, a popular refuge offering services and a good place to stop. Although no specific permits are mentioned, it's advisable to carry sufficient water, especially in warmer months, given the route's duration.
This route stands out not only for its natural beauty, with a rich diversity of flora and fauna, but also for its history, as part of the trail follows an old railway line once used for copper transport. You'll be able to observe viewpoints like Solana Recio, which offers panoramic vistas, and if you're lucky, spot local wildlife such as wild boars or otters near the river. It's an excellent way to explore the Sierra Norte de Sevilla and enjoy an active day outdoors.
