I am born in Sierra de Cazorla (Jaén)
I am666 km long…
...and I have dozens of bridges
I am the only Spanish big river whose course ...
...flows entirely through one autonomous community (Andalusia)
I flow through the provinces of Jaén, Córdoba, Seville and Cádiz
I flow through cities
such asCÓRDOBA
and
SEVILLA
My main tributary is the Genil river,
which is born in Sierra Nevada
Many types of fish live in my waters:
trout, barbel, black blass, sturgeon, pike, carp ...

On my banks there are oleanders, rush, reeds, mint, alders, ash trees, poplars, willows ...
At Sanlúcar de Barrameda my waters flow
into the Atlantic Ocean
