Itinerary description
Starting from Sant Cugat FGC station we walk through the town to visit the Monastery and Wine co-operative. From here we walk to the start of Parc Collserola and then proceed via the GR-6 trail to Can Borrell rural restaurant.
From the restaurant we continue on the GR-6 to the Sant Medir rural chapel, following the road up to the urbanisation of Sol i Agua. Cresting over the mountain we see views of Barcelona before dropping down to Vall de Hebron Metro (L3)
This is an Easy route that mostly follows rural roads.
Allow 6-8 hours , including the Monastery and wine co-operative visit.
Note that Sant Cugat is Zone 1 so can be done with a T-casual ticket.

Very nice walk, thanks 👌🏻💚
A pair of observations:
1. After the pic-nic area the suggested trail was interrupted (plants grew making it inaccessible). It was however possible to proceed by following the larger road (where cars can pass) and then rejoining the trail.
2. The final part is steep, and also quite irregular, be prepared 😉
