This region, awarded by UNESCO as a Natural Biosphere Reserve, is a Catalan treasure that captivates all those who visit it. With its declaration in 2016 as one of the top 100 sustainable tourism destinations in the world by the International Global Green Destinations Association, this place has been recognised for its commitment to quality, sustainable tourism that respects the environment and local culture.

This enclave is a confluence of natural treasures and two unique ecosystems in the Mediterranean: the Ebro Delta and the Ports Massif. The beauty and diversity of its landscapes, ranging from natural parks to mountain ranges and rivers, offer a palette of colours and shapes that change with the seasons, reflecting the slow but relentless rhythms of nature.

Wine tourism and adventure proposal in the region

Visitors looking for a unique wine tourism experience will find Terra Alta, a sub-region of this area, an ideal destination. Renowned for its Denomination of Origin and for maintaining indigenous varieties such as Garnacha Blanca, Terra Alta is a showcase for the age-old art of winemaking.

The area’s family-run wineries, many of which have been taken over by new generations, offer guided tours and tastings that allow travellers to discover the richness and passion behind each bottle.

The great good fortune for visitors is that wine transcends beyond, and combines with other tourist specialities: the area offers a wide range of possibilities.

For nature and adventure lovers, Terres del Ebre offers a wide range of activities. From romantic walks around the Fangar lighthouse, where you can enjoy unique sunsets, to aquatic experiences on the river Ebro, such as kayaking or paddle surfing, each activity is an opportunity to connect with the natural environment.

Hiking along the GR92, which runs along the coast between l’Ametlla de Mar and l’Ampolla, offers breathtaking views and the opportunity to dive into crystal clear coves.

Gastronomy is another mainstay of this region, with cuisine ranging from traditional to signature, including three Michelin-starred chefs. Restaurants scattered throughout the region offer dishes made with local produce, providing a culinary experience that is a true reflection of the land.

In short, Terres del Ebre is not simply a destination, but a transformative experience that invites travellers to connect with nature, history and culture. Here, time seems to dilate, allowing visitors to fully immerse themselves in authentic sensations and the pure beauty of their surroundings.

Inspired by Friedrich Nietzsche’s thoughts on simplicity and naturalness as the supreme ends of culture, this destination offers a unique opportunity to reconnect with the essentials of life.

The itineraries and guides available in the region provide a range of possibilities to explore and enjoy all that Terres del Ebre has to offer. From wine routes through Terra Alta, combining culture, high quality organic wines and spectacular landscapes, to activities such as electric bike rides and clandestine wine tastings, each experience is designed to immerse visitors in the essence of this magical place.

The “Les Bruixes d’Arnes” route with wine tasting in Horta de Sant Joan, for example, is an experience that combines history, nature and oenology. Visits to wineries in Batea and Bot allow you to discover the winemaking process and take part in sensory workshops and tastings led by oenologists. In Deltebre, the clandestine tasting offers an open-air adventure where surprise is the main ingredient.
