Jara Greenway Nature Trail

Information
An adventure in unspoiled lands, from the banks of the Tagus River to the lush forests of the Sierra de Altamira.
IT IS NOT ALLOWED TO CIRCULATE ON THE ROAD, BEING OF TOTAL RESPONSIBILITY OF THOSE WHO DO NOT RESPECT THIS WARNING. Due to the state of conservation in which it is and the serious safety problems arising from this circumstance (poor condition of the road surface, lack of lighting in the tunnels and lack of management since 2018) we inform of the TEMPORARY CLOSURE OF THE VÍA VERDE DE LA JARA. Any changes will be duly communicated. As long as this situation is maintained, it is not allowed to circulate along it, being of total responsibility of those who do not respect this warning any accident or incident that may occur. In particular, special emphasis is made on the fact that it is not allowed to access or approach the enclosures of the stations in a state of abandonment, the so-called Tunnel No. 9 closed (the next to the Nava-Fuentes station) by landslides due to the rains.
There are times when a railway is stillborn. This was the case with the line designed to connect Talavera de la Reina in Toledo with the Vegas Altas del Guadiana in Extremadura. The extremely challenging route, coupled with the extensive engineering works required by the region's tortuous terrain, led to the project's abandonment.
Today, Jara Greenway runs between the Montes de Toledo and the Villuercas Massif in Extremadura
