With the Family

A weekend following the course of the Anoia River can be a real adventure for young and old alike. The Via Blava Anoia, which runs from the river’s source to its mouth, offers sections and paths ideal for walking or cycling with children. But it also hides charming villages, natural spaces, games, and gastronomy to round off the trip.

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?

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?

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.
