Visiting Montseny? Take a picnic
Are you thinking about heading to the Montseny area? Why not take a picnic there? Here you have five picnic areas in the Montseny Natural Park. You could combine your picnic with a hike or simply enjoy the lovely setting. Remember to dispose of all your litter in a rubbish container.
1. Can Casades Picnic Area
Set in the garden of the Information Office of the Natural Park in Santa Fe are three wooden tables in a very shady spot that’s perfect for spring and summer picnics. The picnic area is equipped with toilets and a water fountain, as well as a spacious play area for children. There are two large parking areas, but they tend to fill up quickly because this is a starting point for hikes.
2. La Guardiola Picnic Area
Set in wonderful, lush surroundings, the area boasts ten stone tables arranged in two blocks. This cool, shady picnic area, set in a quiet spot away from the road and the crowds, is a lovely place to spend the day. It has toilets and a parking area.
3. Les Feixes del Vilar Picnic Area
This is a pretty picnic area distributed on three terraces. On the central terrace there are five wooden tables, toilets and a water fountain. This spot is sunnier than the other two, but it also enjoys some shade. There are no tables or benches on the other two terraces, which makes them perfect for playing or napping. The parking facilities are next to the road, but the table area is set further back.
4. La Plana de Coll Picnic Area
Set within the forest, this picnic area has four wooden tables with plenty of space between them. It’s a lovely spacious and shady area for enjoying nature. You’ll find a Natural Park information point and toilets, along with a large car park, since this is also a popular starting point for hikes.
5. Font Fresca Picnic Area
This small, shady picnic area is set at the entrance to the Natural Park, coming from Aiguafreda. It contains three large stone tables arranged on different levels, connected by steps. The spring, after which the area is named, is set in a shady spot and makes this a lovely place to spend some time. You’ll have to make your way there on foot from the car park of the Aiguafreda de Dalt historical complex, located around 200 metres from the picnic area.
