Rucs i Someres Les Preses

Rucs i Someres is dedicated to organizing tourist rides on Catalan donkeys through the Pedra Tosca Park.

Through the implementation of the European Life Environment project, the Les Preses City Council has worked to recover part of this space. This is known as Pedra Tosca Park, a place born with the desire to recover, respect, and consolidate the actions carried out by our ancestors some 150 years ago.

A natural environment with history

The Piedra Tosca Park, made up of a labyrinth of paths, dry walls, ricks and cabins, and with a landscape that changes throughout the year, welcomes us and returns us to the silence and the sensation of living without haste, but it also helps us understand the extreme human need and determination to modify a territory of such exceptional harshness. The delicate combination of interventions to restore and recover the landscape has made the Piedra Tosca Park win the Rosa Barba European Landscape Award .

An open space that is an example of the restoration of natural landscapes, including volcanoes and farmland, through a combination of artificial and natural elements. At the same time, Pedra Park won the Architecture Award in the outdoor spaces category at the tenth edition of the Girona Region Architecture Awards in 2006. In 2007, the park was again recognized with the X+ Verd Award (for greener) at the second European Ciutat Verda Congress.

ACTIVITIES FOR ALL

Rucs i Someres offers an inclusive and enriching experience, suitable for all ages and designed to be enjoyed in company.
