The Tòfol Footbridge is a favorite place for hiking in El Segrià. This wooden bridge crosses the Segre River, linking natural paths. Although it is close to the city, it makes you feel like you are far away, surrounded by nature. An excellent option to explore!

Although I didn't get to cross it because my route was in another direction, I can say that it sure is nice to cross to observe the wetlands.

Without being knowledgeable about the subject, at first glance it is a different hermitage in terms of its construction, similar to a hybrid between a church and a farmhouse, with its two arches and that porch at the entrance, which on the other hand offer shade to the traveler and a good place to stop to rest and get some fresh air, since shade as such is not abundant in the area, since the orography is beginning to be of the most arid type. It is a church declared a cultural site of local interest, although I do not have data regarding the date of construction and so on.
