ROUTE 1 FARMLANDS ROSES COSTA BRAVA

Route 1 Farmlands

APPROXIMATE DURATION: Option A. 2 hours 30 minutes | Option B. 3 hours 20 minutes DIFFICULTY » Medium PLACES OF INTEREST » Traditional olive trees, reservoir, stone pine and Holm oak woods, traditional farmhouses. Roses paths brochure


ROUTE: The route begins and ends at the crossroads of the paths called Camí del Mas d’en Berta and Carretera de les Arenes, preferably in clockwise fashion.

After walking along the highway some 200 meters, you will then take the traditional livestock tracks which were used to herd livestock to the high or low mountain pasturelands, depending on the season. These paths, which are lined with dry stone walls, are one of the jewels of the Creus Cape.

Along the way you can admire the area’s traditional crop, the olive trees, from which the first-rate oil is drawn as a result of the weather conditions and the quality of the land.

About halfway through the route, you can choose to follow the path that runs down to the  Trencada stream, or continue through the Mediterranean wilderness of the natural park until you reach the Can Ponac sands, where sand was once strip-mined, and which currently serves as a water collection point for fire prevention purposes. It also serves as a drinking spot for the area’s fauna, including wild boars or foxes, as well as other mammals and bird species.

Continuing down this trail you will pass the Mas d’en Berta farmhouse, located in the middle of a natural meadow, and a little further down you will come across the Mas Pairet, which was inhabited until recently. Both farmhouses brought life to the valley with the growing of olives and subsistence stockbreeding.

This trail takes you back to the start of the route, at the crossroads with the Carretera de les Arenes.
