It is easy to talk about sustainability, but it is sometimes harder to put it into practice. When making plans for the weekend or a longer getaway, you might not know where to start looking. With this in mind, today, we would like to tell you about some of the best options for responsible tourism in the county of Vallès Oriental.

Do you know where the things we consume every day come from? Do you know how they’re made or done, and by whom? How is the copper wire that brings electricity into our homes manufactured? How does water reach our taps? Where does the cement used to build your home come from? How about the clothes you wear and the spaghetti you eat? Six museums in the counties of Barcelona explain the inner workings of everyday things. Is your curiosity piqued??

Pyrenean nature, charming villages, some 15 textile model villages and a delta that provides an oasis for peaceful birds, just a stone’s throw from aeroplanes. What links all these elements together? The Llobregat Path! It’s a fully signposted long-distance path stretching 170 km that can be enjoyed in hot and cold weather. It’s a great way to enjoy exploring one of Catalonia’s major rivers on foot or by bike, whichever you prefer. Here are some the stretches we recommend visiting.
