This is the initial stretch of the Val de Zafán greenway, leaving Tortosa towards Alcañiz. It occupies the layout of the old railway line between Puebla de Híjar and Tortosa, dismantled in the 1970s. Today it is a first-class tourist attraction, thanks to being a segregated cycle path and enjoying numerous tourist and scenic attractions along its route.

Cycle path that leads to Deltebre. At this point, apart from a couple of short pieces of dirt road, it is almost completely paved and flat, very easy to pedal.

The Tortosa Greenway is an equipped track that follows the old railway linking Tarragona with Aragon. Today, there are more than 100 kilometers of gravel trail. Road bikes can use it without problem, although a gravel bike is better suited.
