Description
La Devesa is one of the most iconic and characteristic places in the city. It is a large park covering over 40 hectares of land, three quarters of which are covered by plane trees arranged in wide avenues, forming a total of six blocks.
On the other side of the river, the Ribes del Ter Park is a broad open space bordered by riverbank vegetation and located just in front of the Girona Fontajau Sports Hall. The park forms part of the natural area of Les Ribes del Ter, a wetland which includes the banks of the river as it flows through Girona. The fact that this well-preserved area forms part of the city centre makes it very important from an ecological and environmental point of view.
Tips
TRAÇAT
- Traçat semiurbà, fàcil i adaptat per a persones amb cadires de rodes, cosa que no vol dir que es pugui presentar alguna dificultat mínima puntual.
- Pràcticament pla, no presenta forts desnivells.
- En cas de fortes pluges, es poden formar bassals en algun indret.
AIGUA
- No hi ha punts d’aigua potable en tot el recorregut. Porteu almenys una cantimplora ben plena.
PRECAUCIONS
- En cas de pluges abundants, el riu Ter augmenta el seu cabal. Absteniu-vos de baixar al llit del riu en cas de crescudes temporals.
METEO
- Hi ha trams de camí que van pel mig de la devesa, amb força ombres. No obstant hi ha també trams exposats al sol. A l’estiu, poseu-vos protecció solar.
TERRENY
- El terreny és gairebé sempre molt fàcil, amb trams de terra compactada. Només en cas de pluges prèvies, ens podem trobar amb alguns bassals.
