Hiking

An icon of the city and one of the most picturesque bridges over the Vinalopó River. Its construction dates back to 1912 and is characterized by its reinforced concrete structure with a span of 50 meters, being one of the first of its kind in Spain. It is a work of art that today paints the city with its beautiful architecture.

The Canalejas Bridge, also known as “Pont Nou”, is an iconic element in Elche. It stands out for its 50-meter-long vaulted central section, which is the most significant in Spain of its kind.

Hiking

On January 3, 1912, work started on the third bridge for our city. It was the first bridge in Elche to be built with reinforced concrete and also the first in Spain with a single reinforced concrete arch formed by a central vault with a span of 50m. The bridge was inaugurated on April 20, 1913, thus connecting the urban center of the city to the Ensanche de Poniente
