Itinerary description
This track is one of the three parts of the PR-C 119 treeking route called Cinturó de la Conca d'Òdena.
The treeking has been made by students at Institut Montbui, participating in the Erasmus+ project "Can you tell me the way to...?".
We started the trail near Collbàs church, around 2 km far from our school. In order to reach this point, we walked to Montbui old town and then we followed the GR 172 path. From Collbàs we went to La Tossa de Montbui (3 hours). The view from the top of la Tossa mountain is amazing: from there you can see many badlands, cuesta's relief (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cuesta) and Montserrat mountains. From La Tossa we went down to Coll del Guix (where you can find a gypse oven) and then to Pla del Magre and Jorba. In Jorba there is a pilgrim's refuge (http://caminodesantiago.consumer.es/mobile/albergue-sant-jaume) where you can eat and sleep.
Alongside the path we saw many plants typical of Mediterranean forests: white pine, common juniper, rosemarin, mastic, Spanish juniper, European box, ...
The path is a bit steep at times. It took us around 7 hours to complete the 20 km.
