South Catalonia Cycle Tour

With approximately 170 kilometers, the Zafan Valley Greenway (via verde) is definitely one of the tourist cycles paths with the most contrasting landscapes in the whole state. A route that takes us from the highlands of Aragon to the sea through two natural parks as spectacular and diverse as Els Ports and the Ebro Delta. You will spend the night in the magnificent paradors of Alcañiz and Tortosa, two beautiful historic towns.
