Beautiful section of the greenway

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Good pavement, tunnels, trenches, landscapes and a route with hardly any slope make this section a delight to pedal. During the weekends it is usually crowded.

Once I arrived, I discovered that all the restaurants in Luque are closed on Mondays. Well, I hadn't checked that; a little …

April 25, 2025,🇪🇸🚴🏻‍♀️ „Via Verde de l‘Aceite“ 🌞28🌡️

The Via Verde de l'Aceite, the longest Via Verde in Andalusia, runs 127 km from Puente Genil to Jaén.

I started at a lovely little parking lot in the middle and drove towards Puente Genil.

This Via Verde definitely didn't steal its name; there are thousands of olive trees on both sides.
