Tortosa Travel Forum

Some friends told me about the Ebro river's delta... they said it's gorgeous. Has anybody ever been there? If I take a train to Tortosa, how far am I from the nice things? How do I get from Tortosa to Deltebre?

Sorry I can't help on how to reach it by public transport (I went using my own car) but yes it's a beautiful area. I think there are trains from Tortosa to L'Aldea (hopefully others may confirm) and from there I guess there will be some kind of transport to near the protected area (Deletebre is the nearest village to the park, about 25 Km from Tortosa)

The Delata is a must if you like birdwatching, but is very interesting in any case. I loved specially the sky reflected over the rice fields at sunset!

you'll find more info here

and here, but so far only the Catalan version does work

there are trains from Tortosa to L'ALDEA-AMPOSTA, depending on where you are travelling from, yo may not need to go as far as Tortosa although I think it would be worth seeing. I would imagine taxis from the station would be an option.
