Beautiful section of the Vía Verde del Aceite

Highlight • Cycleway

The "Oil Greenway" is an old railway line that ran between the provinces of Jaén and Córdoba through the Betic mountains. It begins in Jaén capital next to the Las Fuentezuelas sports complex, and reaches Campo Real (Puente Genil).
Planning began around 1873 and was completed in 1891.
Its railway life ended in 1984, when it was dismantled, remaining today in an orchard in the middle of the countryside, in perfect condition for cycling, hiking or any similar activity.

Vía Verde Footbridge in Torredelcampo

Highlight • Bridge

This metal walkway was built relatively recently. It was funded by the Provincial Council and eliminated an unnecessary detour to reconnect with the greenway.
When it rains, you must be careful on the descent toward Torredelcampo, as the wood is slippery, so you should avoid using the brake until you have cleared the first bend in the walkway.

Metal footbridge over the highway

Highlight • Bridge

This small iron structure serves to facilitate the passage of Vía Verde users over the Autovía del Olivar highway as it passes through Torredelcampo.
It was built relatively recently and was carried out by the Jaén Provincial Council, presumably with European funding. It solves a problem that required traveling a few meters further to reach another bridge in the aforementioned town.

Arroyo del Salado Viaduct

Highlight • Bridge

At kilometre 34 of the nature trail that runs along the route of the railway line that covered the Linares-Campo Real line, we find an impressive civil engineering work. This is the Salado Stream Viaduct. A 208.70 metre long bridge whose construction used iron and limestone. The bridge also stands out for its height of 50m, the two pillars are 34 metres high.
