Explore the Greenway of the Terres de l\u2019Ebre from Horta de Sant Joan with Montsport<\/span><\/p>\n

The Greenway of the Val de Zaf\u00e1n<\/strong> follows the former railway between La Puebla de H\u00edjar and Tortosa<\/strong>. In 1973 it was closed after a tunnel collapse between Prat de Comte and Pinell de Brai. Today it\u2019s a safe, highly scenic cycling route. It runs ~99 km<\/strong> from Teruel to Tarragona and gently descends towards the sea, which makes it ideal for families and groups<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Why start in Horta de Sant Joan<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Horta de Sant Joan is a key starting point: solid logistics, favourable gradient, and a seamless connection between Terra Alta and Baix Ebre. From here you\u2019ll pass through tunnels and viaducts, swimming spots like La Fontcalda<\/strong>, and former station buildings now offering cyclist services (bar, terrace, accommodation).<\/p>\n
