Anoia is a land rich in water and stories. For centuries, the river has been the lifeblood that turns wheels, powers machines and brings crafts to life, showing us how people used to work in the past. Along the Via Blava, you will find villages and corners where the industrial past lives on: old paper mills, factory colonies, tanneries, and museums that take you on a journey through time.
The Via Blava Anoia not only invites you to follow the calm course of the Anoia River, but also to discover corners full of history and views that embrace the whole region. Between Jorba and la Pobla de Claramunt, the route offers chapels, basilicas, and viewpoints that combine heritage, spirituality, and nature.
