Los Toruños Marshland and La Algaida Pine Forest is located in a setting dominated by the mouth of the San Pedro River. The coast, the marsh, the dunes and the pine forest are united in origin.

It offers, along its 30 kilometres of trails, a great biodiversity. This differs in the two margins of the San Pedro River. On the left we find La Algaida, a very forested area; and to the right we find Los Toruños, with the characteristics of the marsh.
