Description

The Xeresa marsh is a wet and marshy terrain that began as a lagoon like the one in Valencia that, over time, has become isolated. In addition, seawater has seeped into the land; changing the salinity and the amount of fresh water. The water table causes the excess water to drain into the sea in autumn and spring. The Xeresa marsh is one of the most important wetlands on the peninsula; since it is a space with exceptional ecological and biological value. It has been declared as a fauna reserve and flora microreserve, since in its interior there are endemic plants and unique species in their places of reproduction. The route through the marsh has three great places, starting in Xeresa and arriving at the Duc de Gandia farmhouse, so the difficulty is zero for any type of hiker.
