Cycling from Colonia Güell to Llobregat Delta
DURATION: 1 days | DIFFICULTY: | MODALITY: Cycletouring
The route “Cycling from colonia Guell to Llobregat Delta” visit one of Gaudi’s most important works before cycling through the Llobregat Delta, one of Barcelona’s protected natural sites of great ecological value.
Cycling from Colonia Guell to Llobregat Delta we visit the Gaudi’s church of the Colonia Güell. This is the place where Gaudi first brought together all of his architectural innovations. As Gaudi said, had the church been finished it would have been a “monumental model of the Sagrada Familia.”
We visit the church and the Industrial Colonia for which it was created. This promenade is very captivating because of its charm and tranquility of this vestige of the Modernist era. The palpable 19th century atmosphere is kept alive among its streets and buildings.
In the Delta we cycle through a great diversity of habitats with an impressive variety of fauna and botany.
This area is protected by the Council of the European Community which has declared it to be a Special Protection Area for Birds with more than 900 hectares which are protected as Red Natura 2000, and of these, about 500 hectares are Partial Natural Reserve.
This route is a part of the visit programs “A day cycling on the outskirts of Barcelona”. This program presents a variety of fascinating routes that can be taken from the city. We’ll travel from Barcelona in a comfortable, air-conditioned and modern van to our destination just outside the metropolitan area. Our van is fitted with a trailer that carries the bicycles that we’ll be using on the cycling trip of your choice.
