<p>Miravinya Sant Pau, Vilafranca del Penedès</p>

La Cadira (The Chair), La Bardera (named after a nearby ancient farmhouse), El Circell (The Tendril), Sant Pau (Saint Paul) and Balcó del Penedès (Balcony of the Penedès) are the names of the five lookout points that form part of the Miravinya route. This route, designed to be travelled by car, is a fantastic way to discover a good part of the geography of the Alt Penedès region, along with its culture and history. In addition to vineyards, you can also explore mediaeval castles, paper mills, chapels, monasteries, towns and villages, and natural areas of great interest.

Sports shoes, comfortable clothes, a helmet and a bike. That is all you need if you want to spend a great day cycling close to home. Go for a family ride, enjoy nature and learn about history with these six cycling routes we suggest below.

<p>Fira de les Bruixes de Sant Feliu Saserra</p>

Halloween is just around the corner and it’s a great occasion to tell stories that make our hair stand on end. We want to give it our own special touch, so we’ve sought out the best legends about witchcraft in the regions of Barcelona. What’s more, you’ll see that they can also be turned into family outings. A hiking trail is more enjoyable if you’re familiar with the mythology behind it.

<p>Festa de les bruixes a Sant Feliu Sasserra</p>

According to tradition, Halloween night is when the dead return to visit the world of the living. In homes across Catalonia, trays filled with chestnuts, panellets (little almond cakes) and dessert wine await them. Meanwhile, the welcome continues outdoors with fun-filled parties where they enjoy the gift of life before returning to their resting place. Don’t leave them to dance on their own! Here are some of the festivities that celebrate the night of the dead.

<p>Monestir de l'Estany</p>

Home to some amazing heritage, the ten towns listed below are set in locations that will take your breath away or tell you about the history of Catalonia. They’re must-see places to visit during your stay in the regions of Barcelona. You’ll fall in love with their architectural and natural heritage, and they’ll lead you to hidden corners you probably didn’t know existed. Are you ready?

<p>Pedraforca</p>

One of the most closely-guarded secrets by Catalan families is the set of coordinates for the spots where they go mushroom hunting when autumn comes around. We’re ready to show you some places where you might find some mushrooms at the feet of trees, although we can’t guarantee that they’ll be there because various climatic and environmental factors come into play. Remember to pick only mushrooms that you’re familiar with and to be respectful of the local nature. Some of the picnic areas listed here have barbecue facilities, so you might even get to cook the mushrooms you’ve picked.
