Itinerary description

You will arrive by bus and bikes n accesories will be both provided & ready at the agreed meeting/starting point (plaça Mireia's parking). I will guide the group all along the way to the agreed final destination point (Can Borrell's parking). It is a non circular but a 4 well defined parts route where we logically start with the warm up part for about 30 minuts. Later we have a non technical light climb or uphill part for another 30 minuts aproximately. After all that we have what we deserve: the third part is called "in to the wild" downhill part which lasts 30 minuts as well and you will difenetely have so much fun going through such experience. Finaly we have the choice for the forth part called "fauna & flora" which is a unique, pleasent & interesting area where you can enjoy, birdwatching, flowers & trees and specially a nice pond and reservoir and it takes another 30 minuts before we arrive at Can Borrell zone. Once all this route has been finally achieved you may be willing to deservedly eat at Can Borrell Restaurant: fresh, healthy & tasty tipical catalan grilled cuisine. The bus won't be able to wait in Can Borrell's parking unless it's a minibus, there is another parking for larger buses down the road, ten minuts away by bycicle.
