Les Ferreres Aqueduct: Roman Engineering Masterpiece

Stand beneath the soaring two-tiered arches of the 'Devil's Bridge' — a 2,000-year-old Roman aqueduct rising 27 metres above the gorge — on a private guided visit to one of Spain's most dramatic ancient structures.

What to expect

A short private transfer brings you to a forest clearing where the aqueduct suddenly fills the sky — the scale is genuinely jaw-dropping. Your guide explains how Roman engineers carried fresh water 25 km from the River Gaià to supply ancient Tarraco. You walk the shaded path alongside its base, then climb for panoramic views across the pine canopy. The sense of solitude and grandeur here is rare.

Good to know

The site is free to enter; cost is in guiding and transfer. Combine with the city ruins for a full Roman day. Wear comfortable walking shoes — the path is uneven. Confirm your return transfer time carefully against the ship's all-aboard.
