Zaragoza to Lleida by road
The fastest driving route is 150 km (93.5 mi) long and takes about 1 hr 40 min without stops or traffic. It runs mostly on the AP-2 (123 km) and the Z-40 (15.9 km).
It goes through 2 autonomous communities: Aragon (123 km) and Catalonia (27.7 km). That’s an average of 90 km/h (56 mph), and at under two hours you can do it without stopping. The time is OSRM’s estimate with OpenStreetMap data: no traffic and speeds somewhat below the limits, so real trips can differ.
Straight-line distance and bearing
In a straight line, the shortest distance over the Earth’s surface, Zaragoza and Lleida are 125 km (77.9 mi) apart. That’s the geodesic on the WGS84 ellipsoid, the distance “as the crow flies”.
The road is 20% longer: for every 100 km in a straight line you drive 120. That’s a normal detour between two cities. Of the 120 Spanish driving pairs in this series, it ranks 78th for detour (the average is 24%).
From Zaragoza, Lleida lies to the east (bearing 92°), and from Lleida, Zaragoza lies to the west.
