Fishing
Once a year there was a fishing championship at Riba-roja however the area has been overfished and this no longer happens, for the rest of the year you can enjoy fishing both in the reservoir and down the river. The river mouths of the Cinca, Segre and Matarraña rivers are surrounded by a forest and beautiful scenery. In the middle of the reservoir you can see the bell tower of the town of Fayón, which became submerged with the damming of the river. Riba Roja is near to Ascó, and Vinebre both of which are also becoming extremally well renowned for excellent fishing amongst the locals who often try to avoid the more commercialised, heavily fished areas.
