Path of the natural parks

Starting and ending on the shores of the Mediterranean, the Sendero de los Parques Naturales (210 km), also known as Sendero de los Miradores, makes an arc towards the interior of the territory, always about 40-50 kilometers from Barcelona city, to crossing natural spaces protected from the Garraf, Montserrat, Sant Llorenc de Munt and the Obac, Montseny and Montnegre-Corredor.
It is equivalent to the GR-5 Long Distance Trail, and you can imagine that, due to the number of natural parks and mountainous areas that it crosses, the ups and downs are a constant, but also that the effort is worth it.

SAN LORENZO DEL MONTÓN AND THE OBAC
The Sant Llorenç de Munt massif and the Obac mountain range make up a Natural Park of 13,694 hectares, between the regions of Vallès Occidental, Bages and Moianès.
Cliffs and monoliths of reddish conglomerate give uniqueness to this protected area, which has its highest peaks at Montcau (1,056.7 m) and La Mola (1,101.9 m). Above the second, the Romanesque monastery of Sant Llorenç del Munt has stood since the 11th century, declared a Cultural Asset of National Interest.
