MOUNTAINOUS TERRAIN
The Els Ports region is all about nature. A region traversed by valleys and filled with magical forests. Rivers are the arteries that connect the entire territory and come to life in spring and autumn, offering stunning vistas. From east to west, from Tinença de Benifassa to Vilafranca, you'll find numerous villages at elevations of over a thousand meters, surrounded by towering mountains and green areas that offer endless opportunities to enjoy nature.
UNIQUE LANDSCAPES
The nature of Els Ports is at its best in spring, with dominant shades of green painting fairy-tale landscapes, and in autumn when the ochre and brown colors tint the forests, turning them into a genuine spectacle. In fact, during this season, the forests become a meeting place, thanks to the mushroom explosion and the mild climate, which is ideal for hiking trails.
IMPRESSIVE BIODIVERSITY
This region boasts extraordinary biodiversity. Beech forests, pine forests, woods with oaks, elms, walnut trees, almond trees, poplars, junipers, numerous shrubs, or aromatic herbs like lavender, thyme, or rosemary make up an impressive variety to enjoy in the mountains. As for the fauna, the Iberian ibex and the griffon vulture dominate the land and the skies of the region. It's a land of wild boars, squirrels, hedgehogs, badgers, foxes, hawks, eagles, owls, and partridges.
