There are very beautiful images that you will find while pedaling along the channel of the Tajo-Segura transfer. It is a moment of peace and tranquility very grateful for lovers of two wheels.

If you've had enough of the climbs, you can really put your foot on the gas on the canal, which is almost flat. It's a bit annoying because there are lots of speed bumps (to reduce speed) and floor gratings.
