Parc Natural del Delta de l`Ebre - Mirador de la bassa del Garxal
Delta de l'Ebre (Terres de l'Ebre)
The Ebro Delta is the largest wetland in Catalonia; this presque-isle joined to the mainland by a sandbar is reminiscent of a vast triangle surrounded by water. A place where the boundaries between the sky and land, land and water, freshwater and saltwater, cultivated fields and wild vegetation are blurred.
Facilities and observations
Route around El Garxal lagoon, situated in the town of Deltebre, almost at the mouth of the river; it is the most recently formed lagoon on the delta, since it is linked to the last great flood of the Ebro, which occurred in 1937. El Garxal is surrounded by a system of dunes stabilised by vegetation, particularly tamarisks. The route, measuring 1,425 metres in length, goes around the lagoon and is accessible to people with reduced mobility; the entrance to the viewing point, located after the first 400 metres, has also been adapted. The viewing point is accessible.
