Els Ports from above

Venture into Els Ports from Alfara de Carles, land of the bandit Panxampla, and climb towards Mont Caro among forests, wildlife and great panoramas. The route lets you discover landscapes such as the Fageda del Retaule beech wood and, with a bit of luck, spot wild goats before looking out over the Delta and the Mediterranean from the heights.

Els Ports can be savoured too: honey, kid meat from the Cabra Blanca breed, Terra Alta PDO extra virgin olive oil, seasonal mushrooms and an inland cuisine rooted in the products of the massif's villages.
