ROUTE 2 THE OLIVE ROUTE ROSES COSTA BRAVA

Route 2 Olive trees

APPROXIMATE DURATION » 2 hours - DIFFICULTY » Low PLACES OF INTEREST » Traditional olive trees, Pi d’en Rahola, a centuries-old olive tree Roses paths brochure


ROUTE:  The route starts and ends at the entrance to the Mas Oliva residential neighborhood. The first section follows the Oslo street (Carrer Oslo), parallel to the Ginjolers stream, the most important of Roses’ waterways. The route goes on past the paved road through fields olive trees that yield exquisite oil thanks to the mild climate and fertile soil.

The Mas de l’Alzeda, which is still inhabited, dominates the landscape at the end of the valley.

At the first intersection you find, you will take the path to the right and you will reach the centuries-old Roses Olive Tree, a tree whose massive trunk is proof of its solemnity and persistence throughout the years. The route, from the point where you turned off and back, can take you approximately 30 minutes.

Further ahead, just 200 meters in a straight line from the first crossing, you will come to a second crossing, where you can also choose to take the path that branches off to the right, leading to another tree that is of local interest: the Pi d’en Rahola, a pine tree that also impresses by its massive size and height.

Once back on the route, and following the markings, you will find yourself on the path that goes through olive groves, which reveal the importance of this crop in the past, and which has become one of the most significant elements of Roses’ natural, cultural and social heritage.

The path leads back to the paved road and the starting point of your trek.
