Seville and its surroundings: bike routes, trips to nature parks, or cultural visits full of charm
Seville captivates those who visit with its blend of cultures, architectural wealth, and the simplicity of everyday life. If you stay in the center, you’ll be in the heart of this vibrant city, which you can explore by bike, admiring majestic monuments like the Cathedral and the Giralda or enjoying beautiful parks and gardens.
Additionally, the capital serves as a gateway to the region’s wonders, from the Roman City of Italica in Santiponce to the Cave of Wonders in Aracena, not to mention the ecological treasure of Doñana National Park, a sanctuary for many endangered species. In Seville, there’s something for everyone in an incredibly beautiful setting.
Visit the Cathedral and the Giralda
Seville’s cathedral, also known as the Cathedral of Saint Mary of the See, is the largest Gothic church in the world and the third-largest Christian temple after St. Peter’s in Rome and St. Paul’s in London. Since the conquest of the city on November 23, 1248, the aljama building, or Great Mosque, became the cathedral of the archdiocese of the Kingdom of Seville. The Courtyard for Ablutions and the current Door of Forgiveness are also parts of the old mosque.
The entrance to the Cathedral is through the Plaza de la Virgen de los Reyes. It has five naves, and its floor plan is a rectangle measuring 116 meters in length by 76 meters in width. The maximum height is reached at the crossing, which reaches 40 meters. In addition to its immeasurable artistic and devotional value, the building is a point of historical interest, as it houses the remains of the explorer Christopher Columbus.
The Giralda is the bell tower of the Cathedral. You can reach the top via ramps. Enjoy extraordinary views of the city from the top. The brick decoration, which is the work of architect Alí de Gómara, is notable. Adjacent is the beautiful Courtyard of the Orange Trees, built in the Almohad style with a Visigothic fountain.
The Royal Alcazars of Seville
The Royal Alcazars are a symbol of Seville’s cultural legacy and one of the city’s most popular tourist destinations. This fortified palace complex is located in the city center.
Its construction dates back to the Islamic era. It is famous for its architecture, which combines Islamic, Mudejar, Gothic, Renaissance, and Baroque styles, reflecting the various cultures that have influenced the region over the centuries.
Bike ride through Seville
Seville is a paradise for bike lovers. The city has embraced a sustainable mobility model focused on people, with almost 200 kilometers of bike lanes and 265 stations for public bike hire. This, combined with a mild climate and beautiful monuments, makes cycling around the city a wonderful experience accessible to everyone.
There are four charming routes:
- The parks, gardens, and river route goes through tree-lined areas like María Luisa Park and the Garden of the Valley.
- The historic heritage route passes by the Triana Bridge, Tower of Gold, and San Telmo Palace.
- The contemporary architecture route runs from Santa Justa Station to the Diocesan Seminary of Sevilla, including the Olympic Stadium and Cartuja Center Auditorium.
- the Ibero-American Exhibition of 1929 route stops at Hotel Alfonso XIII, Plaza de América, and the country pavilions, as well as the monumental Plaza de España. Rent your bike or electric scooter and discover them all!
Roman City of Italica (Santiponce)
Just 7 kilometers from Seville, the Roman City of Italica in Santiponce is a must-see for history and archaeology lovers. Founded in the 3rd century B.C. by Roman general Scipio, Italica was not only the first Roman city in Hispania but also the birthplace of two great Roman emperors: Trajan and Hadrian.
The site is divided into two main areas: the Vetus Urbs, under the current city center of Santiponce, and the Nova Urbs, the expansion planned by Hadrian. Today, visitors can explore the impressive amphitheater, one of the largest in the Roman Empire, which could hold 25,000 spectators, houses, mosaics, and other vestiges that offer a glimpse into the daily life of classical Rome.
In addition to its Roman legacy, Santiponce is home to the Monastery of San Isidoro del Campo, a Gothic-Mudejar gem that completes the visit to this beautiful town in Aljarafe.
MundoPark
Another must-do family activity is a visit to MundoPark, a zoo and botanical garden 15 kilometers from Seville. Dedicated to the protection, study, and conservation of both native and exotic flora and fauna, especially the most vulnerable or endangered species.
The park offers the possibility of enjoying two shows during your visit. First, the birds of prey show, where kids have the opportunity to put on a falconry glove and see how these animals perch on their hand. At the end of the visit, you will attend the horse show led by professional equestrians who display the different types of dressage and how these majestic animals move to the sound of music.
Doñana National Park
Doñana National Park is one of Europe’s most important and beautiful wetlands. This vast region, which encompasses marshes, mobile dunes, and Mediterranean forests, is also home to countless endemic and endangered species, such as the Iberian lynx and the imperial eagle. Guided tours allow visitors to explore its diverse ecosystems, learn about its ecological importance, and immerse themselves in the history and culture of this unique region. It is an authentic natural spectacle that changes with each season of the year, located between the Andalusian provinces of Huelva, Seville, and Cádiz.
Horseback Riding in Seville
Exploring Seville on horseback is a unique experience that connects you to the region’s rich equestrian tradition. Both in the city and its surroundings, there are multiple options to enjoy horseback riding trails, ideal for couples, families, or groups of friends. These routes will take you through picturesque landscapes such as the region of Aznalcázar, Utrera, or even the Doñana National Park.
It is a perfect opportunity to discover the natural beauty of Seville in an authentic and immersive way.
