One of the largest marinas in Europe. A network of navigable canals. Moor your boat right at your doorstep. Very impressive.

Nice bridge to cross the river La Muga by bike or on foot. When you cross the bridge by bike you might think it will collapse anytime soon because the planks make a lot of noise. Passed it three times last week and nothing happened 😅

It’s a beautiful open area in the Parc. Grazing cattle and a few ruins give the plain character. The gravelroad is super smooth and accessible for all kind of bikes.

A beautiful bike bridge. Just love the sound when cycling over it. It connects the natural park with Empuriabrava.
