You may have already heard of the Montseny – Costa Brava (MCB), a non-competitive, charity-based resistance hike and cycle ride organized by AE Montseny, consisting of a descent, on foot or by bicycle, from the source of the Tordera (Coll de Sant Marçal) to the mouth. Furthermore, it is a charitable initiative to help create the SJD Pediatric Cancer Center in Barcelona, the largest pediatric oncology center in Europe. Are you in?

Popular inauguration event for the Tourdera
Last Saturday, July 7th, a popular inauguration activity for the Tourdera took place at the Pont Trencat, straddling the municipalities of Santa Maria de Palautordera, Sant Celoni, and Vallgorguina, with walks and bicycle rides, which despite the rain ended with a festive activity at the Pont Trencat with live music, tapas, etc.
The Tourdera tracks on Wikiloc
Although most of you already know it, Wikiloc is a community of users who share routes and points of interest from all over the world, georeferenced, projected on Google Maps or other maps, and which allows you to download tracks, view photographs, explanations, etc. From Tourdera, we have already uploaded the first active sections of the route in the municipality of Montseny.
La Vanguardia highlights the Tordera route.
On October 3rd, La Vanguardia reported on the “Tordera Route and Arbúcies Stream” project, highlighting the possibility of linking the Montseny mountains and the Mediterranean through a route that allows enjoying hiking and cycle tourism. Likewise, it highlights the fact of having managed to bring together so many municipalities for a common project.
First active section of the route!
Great news! Since June, the first section of the Tordera route has been available, specifically from the source of the river at Font Bona in Sant Marçal, in the heart of the Montseny Natural Park, to the town of Montseny. So, if you don’t have any plans this summer, we suggest a fresh and pleasant getaway that will allow you to discover the source of the Tordera river.
Signage works in the municipality of Montseny
During this first semester of 2016, work has begun on the adaptation and signage of the section of the “Tordera Route and Arbúcies Stream” in the municipality of Montseny, which becomes the first of the participating municipalities to make the project a reality. Very soon, once the signage is installed, we will inform you of the completion of the works.
