The Greenway of Los Alcores, which along 28 kilometers connects Carmona with Alcalá de Guadaíra, has as its route the old and mythical “Tren de Los Panaderos”. The railroad route was inaugurated on January 10, 1873, and for almost one hundred years the train was the means of transport most used by the inhabitants of Carmona, El Viso del Alcor, Mairena del Alcor, Alcalá de Guadaíra and Seville until 1975, when it made its last trip from Seville to Alcalá de Guadaíra.
The itinerary of the Vía Verde de Los Alcores runs, as it passes through the municipality of El Viso del Alcor, along hills and long straight stretches that link this municipality with Carmona and Mairena del Alcor. It is the characteristic of the typical landscape of the countryside, where we will find Aleppo pines, carob trees, almueces and ash trees. The impressive views of the Visueña Greenway, with a length of 3,804 meters, allow us to contemplate on clear days, from left to right and back to the town of El Viso del Alcor, the nearby Sierras de San Juan, El Tablón [with its peak El Terril (1,129 meters) which is the highest point in the province of Seville], Líjar, Esparteros and Montellano.
The road surface of the Via Verde Visueña is perfectly conditioned and is suitable for walking, mountain biking or horseback riding, thanks to the fact that it is mainly made up of a layer of sand with a layer of insulation to prevent soil loss; a solid layer of soil flanked by trees in the different sections.
