La Tora Blava

A local trek through the Catalan Pre-Pyrenees

The Tour de la Tora Blava jumps valleys and ridges of one of the most famous places in the Catalan pre-Pyrenees.

Territories of the Alt Berguedà, the Serra d'Ensija, Rasos de Peguera, or the Serra del Cadí, which we often cross to reach other places, will now make us sweat and enjoy equal parts, as this trip can be considered challenging in terms of elevation change. However, we rarely set foot on terrain considered as a high mountain.

The whole route consists of 5 stages, but if we do not have or do not want to spend so much time, we can do the northern or the southern variants, and so we will turn it into a journey of only three stages.

If, in addition, we have extra strength or motivation, we will also be able to reach the most emblematic peaks in the area, such as Pedraforca, Gallina Pelada, or the summit of La Torreta.

Either way, it is a trip that will surely leave us with a good memory, and every time we pass through these counties to go further, we will see everything with different eyes.
