Dénia – El Verger Greenway

The Greenway of Dénia is one of the most pleasant and accessible routes in the municipality. It runs along the old railroad line that connected Dénia with Carcaixent (Valencia) and today has become an ideal way to walk, ride a bike or simply disconnect in a quiet and natural environment.

About 5.9 km long between Dénia and El Verger, the road crosses orange groves, almond trees and traditional crops. The landscape is flat, open and very quiet, with views of the Montgó and the agricultural environment. It is perfect for gentle sports, walks with children or pets (always leashed) or simply to enjoy the outdoors without rushing.

The Greenway is a simple and pleasant way to go for a walk, breathe fresh air and enjoy the landscape that surrounds Dénia. You don’t have to go far to find nature: sometimes, you just have to follow the old train path and let yourself go.
