How to get to the Ecoparque in Gata de Gorgos
Route 1: Over the bridge near the ayuntamiento and take the right turning before the school marked “Font de La Mata”.
Route 2: Over the new road bridge and along the far side of the Gorgos. Straight across the crossroads (left takes you to the school), marked “Font de la Mata”.
Both routes are now the same.
Follow the road around until you come to a fork. The right hand is marked “Font de La Mata”. Do not take this road. Take the left fork up the short hill. The flying club is on your left and the eco-parque is on your right.
