The rural surroundings of Ampoll

 Excursion to the entire Ampolla amongst extensive olive groves, carob and almond trees across the canyons of Furoner and San Pedro. The bottle can make a visit to the beautiful church of St. John the Baptist. Most of the route runs along paved roads. To get to Ampolla from Tortosa C-42 takes the lead up to the N-340, which leads to the left to the people. Port indicators are followed and the promenade. It comes from the tourism office of the Ampolla (square Gonzalez Isla) by the promenade, right in the direction of Camar. Before leaving, or returning from the trip, we visited the church of St. Joan Baptist, built in the twentieth century. After 1.10 km tomb is right and take the road that passes under the railway, the N-340 and AP-7. In a three tunnels turn left (1.70 km) and uphill, you reach the motorway AP-7. It follows the path towards Furoner. It falls to the right (2.00 miles) and continue moving away from the highway. Later, having left behind the house of Roque, he meets a fork (3.60 km) and is left (to the right shortcut would shorten the route). A new crossing (km 5.00). At this point it abruptly changes direction, starting back to the bottle following the indicator Perelló to the  right. Cross the ravine Furoner and back up to make a path to the right before a high voltage tower (5.20 miles). Reached a crossroads and continue down the right (5.50 miles). Later leave a trail to the right and go straight, planning (6.20 km). Appears another branch (6.90 km) should continue to the left. It leads to a paved path at the point that describes a sharp bend to the left (7.20 miles) and continue straight until crossing the ravine Sant Pere. We back up again and take a wide path that goes straight. Reached Highway (8.90 km), it falls to the right and cross back top three tunnels on the route to return to the tourist office of the bottle (10.8 km ), start and end of the route.
