Ebro River in Garcia

Nature · Garcia, Ribera d'Ebre, Tarragona

Stretch of the Ebro river as it passes through Garcia, in the Ribera d'Ebre (Tarragona), where the river receives the confluence of the Siurana. The town sits on the left bank of the Ebro, between the river, the Rec de Valls ravine and the Siurana itself, surrounded by terraced vineyards. Before the road to Móra la Nova opened in 1917, the crossing was made by boat; grain arriving from Aragon was once transported along its waters to a storehouse in the town, and since 1922 the Barcelona-Madrid railway has crossed the municipality 500 metres from the riverbed.
