This festival, celebrated throughout the region, is an excellent opportunity to enjoy roasted chestnuts and the company of neighbors and friends.
The event will take place at Caliu, a cozy space inviting people to share pleasant moments. Attendees will enjoy roasted chestnuts in a warm, family-friendly atmosphere, ideal for social interaction and celebrating local traditions.
Participation is free for association members, while non-members can sign up for just €5. Registration is open until October 25th and can be done by contacting Manoli at 627 53 53 47. Don't miss the opportunity to participate in this iconic activity!
This Castañada is not only a time to enjoy chestnuts, but also to celebrate autumn, camaraderie, and the village's good traditions. Vallgorguina, located in the Vallès Oriental region, is known for its natural beauty and peaceful surroundings, making it an ideal place for community activities like this one. Its proximity to nature allows for walks and trails that perfectly complement the Castañada experience.
