Sant Llorenç del Munt i l'Obac: Coll d'Estenalles - Montcau

English below

No estavam segurs si publicar aquesta ruta o no.
La primera part, la pujada al cim del Montcau, ha estat espectacular, una mica concorreguda, però amb unes vistes precioses sobre una vall boirosa.
La pujada és forta, però curta i factible.
La segona part, però, la baixada per una zona més boscosa, ens ha creat dubtes, perquè el camí estava més desdibuixat i hi havia un punt una mica més complicat pel terreny. Però al editar el track, he vist que sí que aquest camí figura en el mapa, per això he considerat que no era problemàtic publicar la ruta.
La proposta per a aquesta caminada incloïa una visita a la cova Simanya, que hem omès perquè no ens convencia: Hi havia cartells deixant clar que no es pot entrar a la cova sense guia, i el camí fins allà feia baixada amb un terra relliscós. Potser és més agradable a l'estiu.

At first, we weren't really sure if we should publish this route or not.
The first half, the ascent to the Montcau, was spectacular, a bit crowded, but with wonderful views over a foggy valley.
The way up is steep, but short and doable.
But the second part consisted of a descent through a more woody area. The path was sometimes undefined, and there was one point were the terrain was a bit tricky.
Nevertheless, while I was editing the track, I saw that this path was marked on the map, so I don't consider it problematic to publish it.
This route was supposed to include a visit to a cave, Cova Simanya, but the idea didn't convince us. On the one hand, there were signposts making clear that it's not permitted to enter the cave without a guide. On the other hand, the path to the cave was a slippery downhill trail, so we ended up omitting it. It might be more enjoyable in summer.
