Abstract
The aim of this work is to propose four itineraries, one in each of the Nature Reserves of the province of Seville. These Protected Natural Areas host shallow, temporary and brackish-water playa-lakes. These playa-lakes are located in the countryside of southern Spain and they are fragile and scarce ecosystems with a high ecological value. Moreover, they are subjected to a high agricultural pressure in their watersheds. In these itineraries significant elements, such as springs, and the alteration degree of the playa- lakes, some of which are partially or completely drained for agricultural use, are highlighted. Some improvement proposals such as bird viewpoints or new accesses, that are private in some cases, have also been included. This paper aims to contribute to the dissemination of the Natural Heritage of Seville and, particularly, of the wetlands of Andalusia, often unknown by society. Furthermore, the improvement proposals are intended to facilitate accessibility.
