Description
From the forest in the gallery of the Guadalimar River to the Vega olives of the Guadalquivir River.

Technical Description
This Green Way was opened in December 2011, in which a beautiful viaduct that flies over the waters of the Guadalimar River, near the Linares- Baeza Station, stands out. The first kilometers run parallel to the river, and then enter into extensive olive trees. During the tour we will find several tunnels that save the levels.
The route of this green road is part of the major civil engineering project that was intended to unite the city of Utiel (Valencia) and the station of Linares- Baeza.
