Itinerary description
My girlfriend and me did this route in a total 4 days. But can be completed in way less time. We did 3 basecamps along the route and a stop of 2 days to visit Zaragoza (we were planning just one day in Zaragoza but we lost our IDs in a bar. Managed to get them back but took one day cause it was Sunday and the place was closed). It's not difficult at all, basically 80% is fast track (the roads used by the farmers to access their lands) also 99% is NOT private propriety, they are pretty much all hunting territory with crops. just a couple of spot where is good to be slow and careful mainly caused by the presence of rocks and ditches. Will upload photos soon. We did the whole with a full tank plus 30ltr in jerry can. we had a total of 20ltr of water for everything (cooking, cleaning etc.) We found pretty easy to find spots for sleeping, but we used a rooftop tent so that's make it fairly quick.

Beautiful track, thank you!
I did it with a motorcycle which is a lot quicker of course. I only did 2/3 of the track (the north part) and I could do that in a short (winter) day, starting late and with a nice lunch break, so with an off-road motorcycle it’s doable in two days easily.
One note however; the part between the A-68 and CV-624 in the south of the Ebro river is blocked off, with huge signs that it’s forbidden to use. This might be because there are currently (feb 2022) constructions along the a-68. It’s also difficult to find the track because you have to go through the construction site. For now I suggest to go round.
There is also a very short passage in the beginning where the track is a overgrown and not used much, therefore difficult to pass with a car, at least without running over a lot of bushes. There is however a very easy and obvious way to go around.
The difficulty is very easy for motorcycles, for a 4x4 it’s also very easy. Most of these roads are used by locals in their kangoos.
There are however some parts where the roads are washed out and with sharp rocks, as well as bumps in the road to drain rainwater.
Therefore, for the people who ask if it is doable on a light off-roader/SUV like Passat alltrack, I think some parts could be challenging. I think it’s possible when you’re careful and have some experience, but you will definitely be very slow.
I cannot edit my comment, but the blocked part is from the “exit to visit Zaragoza” Tag to the north towards the Ebro river.
Hola Alessio, crees que con un camión overlander truck, un MAN 4x4 podemos hacer esta ruta? muchas gracias!!!
Ruta fácil y entretenida
