Hi

Can someone please help me and tell me as soon as possible, if cycling is allowed on Green Link? Or does this carry a fine? 

Thanks

Do you mean this Greenway? If so, yes.  https://www.viasverdes.com/en/itineraries/itinerario.asp?id=15

Yes 🙂 Thanks for the link.

Thank you, this is so helpful. Are you able to tell me where the beginning and end of the Greenway is on a map please? Also are there many places to lock a bike safely around the beach/marina?

The beginning is by the Parque de la Estacion, which is a couple of streets inland from Acequion beach. It ends up near the salt lakes. I'm not sure of the facilities for locking bikes near the beach or marina as I don't tend to go there on my bike. Sorry.

Thank you. Do you have a guess at how long you think it would take to cycle from the start until Torretas 3 area?

Not really. I only did it once a while ago. Sorry.

Hi Yasmin,

We are at Paraje Natural, roughly half way on the greenway, just up the road from Torreta, it takes us around 15-20 minutes (max) at tourist pace to the seaside and less than that to Montesinos which is the end of the track at the other end.

Must say our house is literally on the edge of the track so no cycling time to and from.

Hope it helps.

Thank you, when you say the sea side, is it a specific beach that you're referring to? 

I'll be 30 seconds away from Calle Nogal, any idea how long it will realistically take from there to the sea/marina? Until I next visit, I can't really tell where I'd access the Greenway from Calle Nogal. Any ideas? Added a map to show you. 

Thanks for all your help.
