<p>Castell de Claramunt</p>

L'Anoia és una comarca per redescobrir, i la millor forma, és fer-ho caminant. El seu paisatge encara agrícola convida a la calma i a mirar l'horitzó. Deixa't impressionar per les seves torres i castells i ressegueix la història dels seus protagonistes. Et proposem tres rutes aptes per a tota la família, si esteu acostumats a caminar. 

<p>Montserrat</p>

És difícil trobar un nom més adient que Montserrat per a la serralada més emblemàtica de Catalunya. Amb les seves formes insòlites de pics arriscats i esquerps penya-segats, el perfil imponent de la muntanya retalla el cel sobre la gran depressió central catalana, fent honor al topònim. 

Quin plaer submergir-nos en la immensitat de la muntanya i passejar per la tranquil·litat dels boscos. Quin goig poder compartir l’experiència amb la família, els amics o gaudir-la en solitari. Però hem de ser conscients de la fragilitat de la natura, i per tant com és d’important informar-nos i conèixer bé el nostre entorn per a tenir el menor impacte possible sobre aquest.

Per això, avui volem celebrar el Dia Europeu dels Parcs i la Setmana de la Natura amb la Fundació Kilian Jornet i el decàleg de bones pràctiques que han fet per a Barcelona és molt més. Per continuar gaudint de la natura amb qui més estimes i cuidant-la perquè també ho puguin fer les generacions futures.
