Riudecols
Riudecols is a municipality that has an area of 19.38 km² and belongs to the Baix Camp region.
R iudecols is currently formed by Les Voltes, les Irles and Riudecols. This union occurred in the nineteenth century, when Riudecols and Les Voltes were part of the same lordship and the proper term of the Irles.
The term is located in mountainous terrain at the foot of Puigcerver (831 m), Puigmarí (660 m), near the boundary of the Campo with the Priorat and the mount of Vilavella (527 m), occupying the high valleys of the streams of the laps and the Irles. The altitude of the term oscillates between 200 and 800 m. It is, therefore, perfect for hiking and mountain biking.
