Ebro Delta Nature Park

Why should you visit?
In the Southern Districts of Cataluña lies Spain's Ebro Delta Nature Park. Tucked away in the hinterland of three major cities (Barcelona, Valencia and Zaragoza), this region served as a major trading post for centuries. It boasts the splendid Terres de L'Ebre, a magnificent area of stunning scenery and ecosystems. The Ebro River and Delta are "Mother Nature's" two key ingredients in making this area a prize gem in fishing and agriculture. Tourism has recently surfaced in the region, but the local people have made it a priority to keep the natural and traditional values alive forever.

What can you do here?
The breath-taking landscapes and calmness of the Park make it an ideal destination where one can step out of the hustle and bustle of city life into the tranquility of nature. If you are into bird-watching or wildlife, the region boasts a number of lagoons with majestic viewpoints and walking trails. The Punta de la Banya (The Gem of the Park) is the Delta's largest natural area and one of the Mediterranean's most important waterfowl breeding areas. And that's not all, the Park boasts a number of bike trails leading to some of the most amazing lookout points that the Ebro offers.

What makes the Ebro Delta special?
The natural diversity in the area is unparalleled. Surrounded by the park's lagoons is La Punta del Fangar, a desert-like area with vast sand landscapes and dune formations. It is one of the most exotic places in all of Spain. Vantage points in this natural oddity give way to sweeping views of the Bay of Fangar, where one can sometimes see mirages. An unmatched experience when visiting the Ebro Delta is the feeling that you are one of the few lucky outsiders to actually take in this spectacular experience. Only the local residents from Cataluña have fullydiscovered the hidden pleasures in the Ebro Delta.
