The Vía Verde de la Sierra is a rail trail for turistic use (hiking, bicycle touring and riding horse) comprising 38 km of mountain's landscapes between Puerto Serrano and Olvera villages, provinces of Cádiz and Sevilla (Spain). It is part of Vías Verdes of Spain (Spanish national rail track system).[1].

The path goes along the riverside of Guadalete and Guadalporcún, and around the natural reserve of Peñón de Zaframagón (where there is a large colony of Griffon Vultures) and the natural monument of Chaparro de la Vega.
