2 days in Valderrobres, capital of Matarraña, and Els Ports in a 4x4
This July 19th and 20th, discover Valderrobres, the capital of Matarraña and Els Ports, in a 4x4!
Els Ports Natural Park is a limestone massif with steep and rugged terrain that has been human-made since prehistoric times. Even so, the Els Ports area appears today as an untamed natural space teeming with wildlife. It is of particular botanical, geological, and faunal interest, as is the case with the wild Spanish ibex.
