    Natural? Encuentro plástico en todos los caminos naturales de Cadiz. Ninguna conciencia ambiental de sus visitantes.

    (Translated by Google) A huge amount of garbage accumulated in El Pinar de los Miradores in the La Barrosa cliff area, a lot of Blue flag on the beach and little Green flag in the pine forest where the macro-bottles are allowed since they are not seen there and where the deterioration of the area in the last year is discouraging. Chiclana City Council has been looking the other way for a year and a half. (Original) Una cantidad enorme de basura acumulada en El Pinar de los Miradores en la Zona de acantilados de La Barrosa, mucha bandera Azul en la playa y poca bandera Verde en el pinar donde están permitidos los macro botellones ya que allí no se les ve y donde el deterioro de la zona en el último año es descorazonador. El Ayuntamiento de Chiclana lleva año y medio mirando para otro lado.

    (Translated by Google) I share the photo to report the path that is in the Salinas Dolores, as you can see it is cut about 300 meters from the main entrance. For your knowledge and that you do not find the surprise that I took. (Original) Comparto la foto para informar del sendero que hay en la Salinas Dolores, como podéis ver el mismo está cortado a unos 300 metros de la entrada principal. Para vuestro conocimiento y que no os encontréis con la sorpresa que yo me llevé.

    A nice place to hike, walk or relax. You can watch birds here and we also saw flamingos. Since there are hardly any trees in the wetlands, it is relatively windy. It's best to dress accordingly.

    My experience in the Bahía de Cádiz Natural Park was an unforgettable adventure that allowed me to connect deeply with nature and discover the beauty of this coastal corner of Spain. From the moment I arrived at the park, I was impressed by the immense biodiversity it houses. The extensive marshes, palmetto forests and water channels create an exceptional habitat for migratory and local birds. During my visit, I was able to observe pink flamingos, gray herons and numerous water birds that nest on the shores of the bay. Bird watching became a captivating experience, and I felt lucky to be surrounded by these majestic creatures. The park's scenery is equally impressive. The wide expanses of water, meandering pipes and golden sand dunes create a stunning visual contrast. Walking the nature trails and elevated walkways allowed me to explore this environment in a comfortable and environmentally friendly way. One of the most memorable experiences was watching the sun set over the bay. The sky was dyed in shades of gold and pink, and the reflection in the water created a dazzling spectacle. It was a moment of tranquility and reflection that I will always carry in my heart. The Bahía de Cádiz Natural Park is a place of serenity and natural wonder. It offers a perfect getaway for those looking to reconnect with nature, enjoy bird watching and immerse themselves in the tranquility of the bay. Without a doubt, it is a destination that I highly recommend for those who wish to experience natural beauty at its finest.

    The natural park of the Bay of Cádiz is an extensive wetland where numerous birds are observed, with flamingos being especially frequent. In spring it is covered with numerous yellow flowers, known in the area as vinaigrettes, which form a uniform mantle of enormous beauty. There is a numerous network of roads and paths, both pedestrian and bicycle. In short, a spectacle

    (Translated by Google) It is a pleasant place to walk, something lacking care on the part of those who should have this type of place in optimal conditions so that its visitors can fully enjoy it. Carrascon Route, both by bike and on foot. It has some halt and some device to stretch and warm up the muscles, but very neglected. (Original) Es un lugar agradable para pasear, algo carente de cuidado por parte de aquellos que deberían tener este tipo de lugares en condiciones óptimas para que sus visitantes disfruten plenamente de ello. Ruta del Carrascon, tanto en bicicleta como a pie. Posee algún apeadero y algun aparato para estirar y calentar los músculos, pero muy descuidados.

    (Translated by Google) Declare that as a natural park I do not see sense, let's realize that it is located in the most densely populated area of ​​the province with San Fernando, Puerto Real and Cadiz around, also people walk and there is a lot of trash on the ground (Original) Declarar eso como un parque natural no le veo sentido, démonos cuenta que está situado en la zona más densamente poblada de la provincia con San Fernando, puerto real y cadiz alrededor, además ademá gente pasea y hay mucha basura en el suelo

    El Parque Natural Bahía de Cádiz dispone de un gran número de aves que junto a la flora, lo hacen un lugar magnífico para pasear y observar. Aunque en los últimos años se está notando la progresiva falta de agua en algunas zonas, el verde y el sonido de sus aves pueden seguir apreciándose en casi cualquier momento. Dispone de fácil acceso y bastante zona de aparcamiento a su alrededor, por las distintas zonas (San Fernando, Chiclana...), pero mi recomendación sin duda es la visita en bicicleta. Varias zonas están actualmente en obras, no pudiendo accederse por ejemplo desde la parte de San Fernando, cosa a tener en cuenta.

    (Translated by Google) Wonderful nature in the Bay of Cádiz, to know and enjoy the flora and fauna along comfortable trails, crossing Caños and Salinas, although not always in the best conditions, sometimes due to lack of maintenance and others due to lack of civility of the visitors. However, always interesting to know and discover our surroundings. (Original) Maravillosa naturaleza en la Bahía de Cádiz, para conocer y disfrutar de la flora y fauna por comodos senderos, atravesando Caños y Salinas, aunque no siempre en las mejores condiciones, a veces por falta de mantenimiento y otras por falta de civismo de los visitantes. No obstante, siempre interesante para conocer y descubrir nuestro entorno.

    Today (07NOV23), running at 07:40 hours, heading to the Salinas de la Borriquer In (Chiclana de la Frontera) three black storks have flown over me (probably because I scared them). I obviously haven't been able to take photos.

    Un sitio muy bonito para caminar

  • 1/5 Jorge G. 1 year ago on Google
    No hay absolutamente nada más que un camino de tierra con muchos baches que no acaba en ningún sitio. Ni bancos ni nada de nada , a ver las marismas y los pájaros con muy bonitos pero no hay absolutamente nada más. Ir con niños no lo veo como una opcion y en coche normal tampoco, igual un SUV por lo menos e ir igual al amanecer o atardecer.

    (Translated by Google) Be careful with the location, if you follow the guidelines ... It ends up on a private plot with no access to the park really (Original) Ojo con la ubicación, si se siguen las directrices... Se acaba en una parcela privada sin acceso al parque realmente
