The route
Quite a demanding and entertaining route where we will do practically all the acent in a single climb, and with some technical parts where we will need to use our hands. Shady journey, almost always in the woods. In Coll Roig and Plans de Nevà we will enjoy spectacular views of the surroundings. Remember you are in a grazing area. During the tour you may find yarn for livestock. For a good coexistence with farmers and all those who live in nature, remember to close the yarns after passing.
We will start the circuit in the Plaza de l’1 d’Octubre, in front of the Bar Casino. With the first few meters through the streets of the village, we will quickly enter the path of the Font de la Serra, which in descent, will take us to the neighborhood of Les Casetes, small group of houses that we will cross to follow a short cemented section that will take us to the beginning of the Camí de la Soís, where we will start the most demanding ascent sector that will take us into the Baga de Planoles until we reach the most technical point of the route, the climb and subsequent descent of Roca Aguda, a peculiar rock formation that protrudes from among the trees.
We will continue on a clear ascent, between monumental trees and torrents of fresh water, until we come across the forest track from Campelles to Coll Roig, where we will turn right to plan about 500m before reaching the grassy pass.
At this point we will begin a rapid descent, always through the forest, which will force us to run with all our senses on alert, passing first by Can Baldrich, an old ruined farmhouse, and continue down to the village of Nevà, a postcard town which is well worth a calmer visit. We leave the houses behind on a clear descent, first along the track and shortly afterwards take a path on our right. The trail is a breakwater, always through red pine forest, which demands the maximum attention in this final section of the circuit. Arriving at the Alberg Marista, we will see the Rigart river, which we will cross by a metal walkway at the height of the football field, and we will face the demanding last sector of the route, less than a kilometer uphill. which, by stretches of asphalt, dirt, stairs and the streets of the village, will take us to the starting point.
