French Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

Although catalogued within the heritage of Granada, it is an attraction for the future enjoyment of neighbors and curious people, since it is located right on the border of our municipality with the capital. The rapid rehabilitation of the vault is expected and it is a bridge over the old riverbed, a bluestone bridge from the first third of the nineteenth century. It is representative of French architecture and has a single eye with a lowered arch. It is called the French Bridge, probably built by Napoleonic troops for the occupation of Granada.

There are several points here: a water crossing point, a new bicycle bridge and a bicycle tunnel under the Rio Genil.

Genil River near Purchil

Highlight • River

The Río Genil is an important river in Andalusia. It is the main tributary of the Guadalquivir and flows through the provinces of Granada, Córdoba, Málaga and Seville. The river has a length of approximately 359 km and an area of 8,278 km².
The source of the Genil is in the Sierra Nevada, north of the highest peak Mulhacén. The river flows through several cities, including Granada, Loja, Puente Genil and Écija, and finally flows into the Guadalquivir at Palma del Río.
The Genil plays an important role in agriculture and water management in the region

Genil River

Highlight • River

The route offers beautiful views of the Vega de Granada, the fertile river valley of the Río Genil, with many orchards and fields. The Río Genil cycle path is a great way to enjoy nature while cycling along a relatively flat route.

Path along the Genil River

Highlight • Cycleway

The cycle path is a green way to approach Granada. But it is not that special. Rather a missed opportunity to make something beautiful of it.
