Following the reviews carried out on the route during the months of October and November, various maintenance actions have been performed, mainly focused on vegetation control at different points of the itinerary in Palafolls, Blanes, Sant Esteve de Palautordera, and Arbúcies, or on replacing damaged signage.
Sant Esteve de Palautordera
Signage improvements in Sant Esteve de Palautordera
On March 15th and 16th, the Sant Esteve de Palautordera town council carried out various improvements to the Tourdera signage throughout its municipality. Specifically, the content of directional signs damaged by the passage of time was updated, and some milestones were replaced or relocated to improve the general tracking of the route.
Conference for entrepreneurs in Sant Esteve de Palautordera
Last Thursday, March 21st, a meeting was held in Sant Esteve de Palautordera for business owners in the municipality to present the opportunity for businesses to participate in the Service Directory on the “Tordera and Arbúcies Stream Route (Tourdera)” website and to make their products and services known to users of the route. The session took place in the Plenary Hall of the Sant Esteve de Palautordera City Council.
Montseny, a natural space with high biodiversity
The Montseny is a protected natural space that represents an important source of biodiversity for our country. In this massif, you will find everything represented from Mediterranean lowland ecosystems to subalpine environments of the highest peaks, passing through humid mid-mountain forests. And if you do the Tourdera in its sections through the Montseny, you will easily see it, passing from Mediterranean holm oak forests on the sunny slopes to beech forests in the cooler and wetter areas.
Modification of the route between Mosqueroles and Sant Esteve de Palautordera
This week, the signage for the modified route section between Mosqueroles and Sant Esteve de Palautordera has been completed. Specifically, the section between the Tordera River and Santa Magdalena had to be modified due to conflicts between route users and local property owners. Currently, if you want to visit the Castle while doing the Tourdera, you must detour about 600m from the itinerary and return to resume it.
Sant Celoni already has its sections of the Tourdera
The Tordera route in the municipality of Sant Celoni is now fully completed in all its sections! From the center of Sant Celoni, you can take three sections and head towards La Batllòria, Vallgorguina, or Santa Maria de Palautordera, while enjoying a pleasant walk or bike ride.
New section between Mosqueroles and Sant Esteve de Palautordera
Since last December, you can now enjoy a new section of the Tordera route, this time between Mosqueroles (Fogars de Montclús) and Sant Esteve de Palautordera. It is a section of moderate difficulty, approximately 5 kilometers long, which includes a variant for hikers and one for cyclists.
Accessibility improvement works at Montclús Castle
The Sant Esteve de Palautordera town council has begun improvement work this summer on the accessibility of the surroundings of the Montclús Castle, within the framework of the Tordera route. The actions, financed by the Barcelona Provincial Council, will allow Tourdera users to enjoy a variant for hikers that enables them to visit, among other places, the Montclús Castle.
