Activities

Cycling

Cycling, with three mountain ranges, the Delta De Ebre and the coast line of the Costa Daurada to explore, this part of Southern Catalonia provides plenty of opportunity. Pride of the tourist cycle paths is the Zafan Valley Greenway With approximately 170 kilometres of beautifully contrasting landscapes, a route that runs from the highlands of Aragon to the sea through two natural parks as spectacular and diverse as Els Ports and the Ebro Delta. We are located between two sections: a) Terra Alta which goes from Arnes de Lledo to Pinell De Brai a 24km section and b) Baix Ebre which runs from Benifallet station to Tortosa a 25km section.

Known as the greenway or via Verde, the path follows the old railway track. When the trains stopped the line fell into disrepair and was forgotten. Today, the old lines have now lost their rails, and what was once the domain of wagons and locomotives is the realm of cyclists, walkers and day-trippers.

Being flat and even and in most parts asphalted over the route provides no technical difficulties – ideal for adults, children, the elderly and disabled. You will find information panels and signposts along the way to keep you informed about interesting, artistic, historical and landscape locations to look out for. The the stations along the route are being resurrected as Hotels, guest houses, restaurants, meeting places and concert venues providing a new and exiting experience.​section.

Our section of the Via Verde starts at Benifallet station the path is now asphalted over, and follows the part of the railway track either south to Tortosa or north to Arens de Lledo and onwards to Pirgmoreno in the region of Aragon. The routes takes you through landscapes of surprising variety, including wooded areas with impressive sheer rock faces, rural settings, virtually unspoiled natural spots, through the engineered railway tunnels which you need a torch for and over impressive railway bridges.​

River Ebro Kyaking

The leisurely Kayak down the Ebro River from Miravet to Benifallet is a unique experience not to be missed. The adventure along this beautiful stetch of the River Ebro is ideal for families with children, parties, or individuals.

The river is clear with a moderate flow that allows a leisurely trip through this wild, beautiful, and serene landscape, passing through the high walls of our Ebro valley and passing El-Figueral on the Left bank. The views of El-Figueral from the river put its location into perspective.

We can organise excursions for our clients.
