<p>Bread route in Lluçanès</p>

If you long for real bread, the kind made with artisanal methods, local flours and sourdough, we have to tell you that you can still find it in places like the Lluçanès region. This is a land with its own identity, halfway between the Plain of Vic and Berguedà. It has a dynamic farming activity where food isn’t manufactured, it’s made! The Bread and Wheat Route will delight you, whether you’re a modern foodie or getting on in years and nostalgic for the past.

<p>Osona Cheese Fair</p>

From grazing cows, sheep and goats to the table in the form of cheese and dairy desserts. There are no secrets in the Lluçanès area; head there whenever it takes your fancy to discover the journey of milk from pasture fields, farms and processing plants to restaurants.

<p>Colònia de Viladomiu Nou</p>

If you have a curious mind and are looking for a family-friendly activity, then plan a day trip to the colònies tèxtils (textile model villages) of the regions of Barcelona. Built between the end of the 19th century and the early 20th century, they’re still full of working machines, fabrics you’re allowed to touch and plenty of amazing stories.
