Ripoll’s Greenway, connecting the Pyrenes to La Costa Brava, following old train tracks, starts at the same street as La Trobada Hotel Sport. It’s called “Iron and Coal Route”, and it’s because of the iron and coal mines, located in Ogassa –it’s the path the old train took in order to transport it to Barcelona–. There are 12km, accessible for bikes and pedestrian. It’s an easy path following Ter river, crossing the forest in some points, and it’s easy to follow and to immerse in nature.
