Undoubtedly one of the greatest epicenters of Marian devotion in the world, the Sanctuary of Nuestra Señora del Rocío is visited by hundreds of thousands of believers throughout the year. Surrounded by marshes and fervor, the sanctuary stands in the village of El Rocío in Almonte, a magical and esoteric place where all roads converge.

The La Rocina stream is one of the main sources of water for the marshes of the Doñana National Park and at this point it leads to an extension of the channel called Charco de la Boca. The path of the same name crosses a great biodiversity of the landscape, from a pine forest to riparian vegetation, ferns, reed beds and aromatic plants.

About 1,000,000 come every year! Pilgrims

Since the middle of the 18th century, pilgrimages (Romerías) have taken place on a large scale in El Rocío. Today, what happens in the town every year during Pentecost can be described as a huge spectacle. And as one of the weirdest religious celebrations on the European continent. Around a million (!) pilgrims come to El Rocío from all parts of the country at Pentecost. The highlight is the procession that begins on the night of Whit Monday. The almost human-sized, festively decorated Madonna is then carried under a canopy through the surging crowd for around twelve (!) hours.

Area of marshes of great beauty, although it is better not to go in summer, when everything is very dry.

After Santiago the 2nd largest pilgrimage church in Spain. Thousands of visitors over Pentecost.
