Jaén’s greenways wind along paths where silence and solitude reign. Free from traffic and with no need to hurry, they are perfect for walking and cycle touring. They are the ideal way to connect with yourself or your travel companions while getting away from the hustle and bustle of the city. Explore the nearly 270 kilometres that cross the province from south-east to north-east, surrounded by nature.

These routes follow old railway lines, so the terrain makes them easy to enjoy on foot or by bike. Along the way, they are dotted with architectural features such as tunnels and viaducts. They also link villages and towns that boast a rich historical and cultural heritage.

The best-known route is the Vía Verde del Aceite (Olive Oil Greenway), one of the longest nature trails in Europe at around 128 kilometres, and a favourite with cycle tourists thanks to its spectacular surroundings.

The Vía Verde de Segura invites you to discover hidden corners of the Sierras de Cazorla, Segura y Las Villas Natural Park and its incredible natural treasures.

The Vía Verde de Linares, meanwhile, rewards walkers with an unforgettable panoramic view of the Guadalimar Valley and the villages of the area from the Mirador del Valle viewpoint.
