Plans

Take the train to Sant Quirze de Besora, hike to the hash, and back to Sant Quirze de Besora.

Expedition

Went as planned. Took the train to Sant Quirze de Besora from Barcelona, which is the last station on this line that I can go with my monthly ticket. At 11h I was there ready to start my hike which was short of 30km. It ended being 28km.

At the very beginning I found that one of the paths I wanted to take was fenced. On this area not all the paths are on google maps or OSM or similar. So I kind of improvised, going in the general direction I wanted to go until I found some not-mapped-path that took me to my original track. This was the only difficulty I found.

The other one was the distance. Might have been a little bit too long from what I had planned. Had I started earlier might have been alright. Nothing I can do now.

Had lunch in Sora and then I was ready to approach the hash. It was near the road. I enjoyed the company of some cows drinking water on the hash area. This is the first hash on the Catalan side of the 42,2 graticule, so yay!

After that I went to the Sanctuary dels Munts at the top of the nearby mountain at 1000m. From here I had fantastic 360º views: from Montserrat, to the Cadi mountain range (and the iconic Pedraforca), to the Pyrenees. Breathtaking. Really worth making the distance to get here.

Once up there I realized the train I wanted to take was parting in ~1:30h and I hadn't enough time to make the 8-9 kilometres that were ahead of me. I was in no condition to walk fast. So I took the decision to take it slow, take the next train, and although I would arrive late at home it was ultimately best.
