Visiting Muelle de Riotinto and Paseo de la Ria of Huelva

A must if you visit Huelva (Andalusia / Andalucía) is the Paseo de la Ría and the Muelle de la Compañía de Riotinto. This area of the city, a five-minute walk from the centre and facing the Ordiel River, has beautiful views and a calm and relaxing atmosphere.


 

Muelle of Riotinto

This is a three-height dock, with a metallic structure and wooden floor, which allows us to walk on top of it and takes us into the river, with views towards the sea.

In the past it was an ore loading bay for the Riotinto Company, and has now been restored for recreational use since 2007.

Next to the Muelle de la Compañía de Riotinto is this promenade, next to the river (and very close to the sea) where you can walk and eat or drink something in the terraces of the cafés along the promenade. A good place to watch the sunset by the water.
