The Assut d'Antella is an essential part of the hydraulic infrastructure of the Séquia Reial del Xúquer, as it functions as a dam that diverts part of its water from the river to the ditch. Considered as a fluvial beach with a crowning height of 3 meters and a dam length of 315 meters, we find the Assut d'Antella between the Xúquer River and the foothills of the Tous mountain range. Without a doubt, the weir is the most well-known natural site in the town, and for which hundreds of tourists come to visit Antella every year, and to enjoy the waters of the river swimming with friends or family. In addition, its importance can be identified at a glance by finding it represented on the town's coat of arms.

Les Salines de Manuel is a municipal natural site of 28 hectares, of great landscape value, which is located next to the town of Manuel. It is a protected space of high ecological and historical value, as it was an old salt mine of the army, now turned into a large green lung. The exploitation was possible thanks to the composition of the so-called Serra de les Salines, formed by a rich combination of mineral salts from sandy rocks, limestone, reddish clay and other materials, giving rise to what we know as "common salt" . Due to the presence of all these minerals, the vegetation has the particular characteristic of being different from that of other places, either because of the adaptation to the terrain or because of the abundant foliage. This is why the site of Les Salines de Manuel houses two very different types of vegetation. On the one hand, the white pine forest with its traditional companions (lentiscle, coscolla, margallon, rosemary, rudder, buckthorn, juniper, etc.); and for another, the saline outcrops, where a Valencian endemic known as Limonium mansanetianum grows in honor of José Mansanet, the great botanist of Simat de la Valldigna. Next to this grass, capable of filtering salt water and expelling the salt through the leaves, grow several tamarinds, trees more typical of coastal areas. The circular route of the area, known as the Ruta de la Sal, is divided into 3 paths, which make up a total of approximately 4 kilometers, all signposted. On the way, you will meet a hill called the "wall of bullets", used in the past for shooting exercises by the army, which had an Engineers and Sappers School here between 1906 and 1996. There is also the Paret del Moro , which are the remains of a Muslim fortification from the 10th century; the remains of an old machine gun nest and trenches; buildings of the old salt exploitation; or the birth of salt water that supplied the salt pans, as well as the recreational area. Les Salines de Manuel, full of vegetation and pines adapted to salt, was exploited since ancient times by the Romans, being handed over a little over a century ago to the army, who finally handed it over to the population to be recovered for the use and enjoyment of visitors as a natural site. The military use lasted until 1996, although it was not until 2006 when the Manuel City Council acquired the land to be used for sports, a rural tourism center and the adaptation of the area as a municipal natural site and the adaptation of various hiking routes.

La Xopera is the most emblematic natural space in the municipality of Algemesí due to its double importance: an ecological one (the only riparian forest that currently exists in the region) and a social one (one of the only places where everyone can contact the nature, such as fishing or canoeing or simply enjoying it as a place to relax). It is located right at the point where the Magre River and the Júcar meet. The tree and scrub species we find are black poplars or poplars, poplars, elms, plantains, eucalyptus, linden trees, lindens, oleanders, carob trees, ashes, willows, walnuts or mulberries, and a fence of cypress trees that separates them from the place. where vehicles are parked. In the bed of the two rivers are apart from the microscopic algae, the alga Spirogura as the predominant one. The floating aquatic community is made up of the water lentil (Lemna gibba), as well as an exotic plant, the Ludwigia uruguayensis, which invades the waters of the river displacing the species of native flora and is characterized by having somewhat fleshy leaves. the yellow flowers. The Fauna that is present in the Xopera is of great importance for its diversity. The recreational area currently has ample leisure and recreation areas, picnic area, services and paellers, in the natural shade of the trees, to enjoy a day outdoors In addition, everyone can get to know the riparian forest in situ, the different types of trees in the area, the orography, the flora and fauna most characteristic of this natural place and the river forests.

The importance of the Els Pinets natural setting lies in its natural richness, surrounded by trees of various types and, in addition, it now has a wide variety of recreational elements. Historically, the place of Els Pinets has been a place very visited by the residents of Carlet, especially at Easter and during the holidays. In this enclosure are the old drinking water tanks. This building, which dates from 1927, was installed on the left bank of the river Sec and has been in operation until 1989. These are two semi-underground twin deposits, with Arabic decoration, among which there is a key room. The purpose of this central enclosure was to store the keys to the floodgates and the equipment needed to distribute the water. The tanks are circular and covered by 18-gallon walled vaulted vaults. In the drum each of the gallons consists of two horseshoe arches.
