With the Family

The area around the Ignatian Way in the counties of Anoia and Bages offers a wide range of activities for families. As well as the option of walking along the route of the Way itself and enjoying the beautiful nature and landscapes with every step, there are particular highlights recommended for children along the way.

The stories of the past are written in the stones and landscapes of the Bages, Baix Llobregat and Moianès regions, rich in geological heritage. The Central Catalonia UNESCO Global Geopark is a fabulous natural area for enthusiasts of geotourism, an activity that brings together nature, culture, geology, mining and gastronomy.

Berguedà offers you an array of options for outings and weekend breaks... It’s the best destination for nature lovers, even at lunchtime. You’re never too far from one of the many designated picnic areas. They’re scattered throughout the region, up in the mountains and near to towns. We’ve selected five of them for you. Remember to always take your litter away with you.

Let’s not beat about the bush: what we’re proposing here is reaching peaks, so there’s definitely some uphill effort involved. But hey, they’re perfectly manageable with a little effort, including for young kids of walking age. You’ll find that little mountains can also offer great panoramic views.

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.

Skirting around the Foix Reservoir, this route is split into two stages: from Sant Sadurní d'Anoia to Sant Pere Molanta (very close to Vilafranca), and from there to Castellet i la Gornal. In addition to natural places of interest, the route also takes in jewels of cultural heritage such as the Monastery of Sant Sebastià and the Monumental Site of Olèrdola.
