Claro de Luna Itinerary in Santa Maria de Palautordera
This excursion is framed within the terms of Santa Maria de Palautordera, Fogars de Montclús and Sant Esteve de Palautordera, touching the Montseny Natural Park, on the sunny side, with Mediterranean forest vegetation. We will find forests of pines and holm oaks, with cork oaks and some oak and a typical undergrowth: heather, juniper, arboços.At the time of the mushrooms you can find different varieties: chanterelles, pinetells, nightingales...
This walk allows us to enjoy magnificent views over the Montseny, the Tordera valley, the Mosqueroles valley, the Montnegre... The itinerary is designed to be done on foot, but it does not mean that it can be done by mountain bike, on horseback...
