Transport
- Drive efficiently and try to maintain a moderate speed on the roads. On mountain roads, not only should you drive calmly for your own safety, but also to avoid hitting wildlife. On tracks you should not drive at more than 40 km/h, except where otherwise indicated.
- Leave your vehicle at the entrance to small villages. You are bound to enjoy the visit more on foot and you will not block the narrow streets.
- Andalusia has the largest number of petrol stations offering biodiesel in Spain. If you use this biofuel you will be contributing to reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
You can get a list by province at the website of the Ministry of Industry, Tourism and Trade (Spanish).
- Wherever possible, try to combine journeys on foot or by bike with the use of public transport, thereby reducing CO2 emissions. Every kilometre you travel on public transport uses up to 6 times less fuel than a conventional car.
- By planning your journeys you can often optimise your energy consumption. For example, planning a journey on the most suitable route (shortest, least busy, best time of day…) you can avoid major loss of time and fuel.
