Surrounding area
Peaceful, beautiful and impressive
The region of Matarraña with its beautiful green hills and mountains in the southeast of the region Aragón, where Mas del Pi is located, is becoming increasingly popular. However there is no mass tourism yet. This region is often called ‘Spanish Tuscany’ which is totally understandable if you consider its beauty.
In Valderrobres you will find restaurants, supermarkets, bakeries and much more. There are also several options in the area to cool down on a warm day such as a large lake with beaches, rivers and many natural pools. Mas del Pi is close to the natural park ‘Els Ports’. This park is ideal for hiking and mountain biking.
