From Tortosa to Amposta

piragua-TortosaAmposta

Between capitals

We will find a calm Ebro, at a stage where you need a good physical shape to be comfortable at the canoe. We offer other routes with better sceneries and more river current, but the navigation between the Catalan Ebro capitals has a symbolic feeling.


Between capitals

We will find a calm Ebro, at a stage where you need a good physical shape to be comfortable at the canoe. We offer other routes with better sceneries and more river current, but the navigation between the Catalan Ebro capitals has a symbolic feeling.

If you are not making the whole Catalan Ebro Descent or a similar feat, we rarely recommend this route, because of its proximity to "civilization," yet has elements worth noting, for example the big arrival in Amposta with its hanging restored bridges

In fact, just at the starting point, we highlight another bridge (one of the 4 we will cross down today): Millennium Bridge. It reminds us, with this name, the long history of Tortosa.

As an historical element, we will find, though now no longer visible from the river due to high vegetation, the Carrova. They are the remains of medieval towers guarding the entrance of the Ebro. Only a point where you need to be aware that it is the mouth of the Left Ebro Channel, just before the railway bridge. Sometimes this Channel can download hard.

What can we see from our canoe ?

  • Bous Island. Protected natural Area. Best if you choose left side !
  • Pipeline Bridge. On the right shore, it is located the Carrova and on the left shore the "Fuente de Quinto", also the rest of a tower.
  • Wide highway and railway bridges in a exciting wide river that make you feel so small.
  • Amposta hanging Bridge. It links to l'Aldea and its a simbol for the city.
  • Amposta Harbour
