A very nice expedition! Hash reached, beautiful hike and scenery and positively surprised by this area.

I tend to visit the hash using public transportation. That's what I was planning on Sunday when my friend asked me if I wanted to do something on monday. Well, as it is now I told him my plans on visting this hash and asked him if he wanted to come along. Had to convince him on other things we would see to really sell him the plan, but he was in from the beginning. What was convenient is that his brother goes to work not that far from here, so we carpooled with him and then we drove to Navarcles were our hike started.
  
 +
First we started to follow the ''Stream of Talamanca'' on the Bages county. Lots of ''cabanes de vinya'' (translated as vineyard cabins) scattered along the way, the stream down there and the path going over the cliffs. So peaceful. We saw absolutely no one the whole time. On this very first part is where the hash was, right in the middle of the path. Quite lucky. 2 hours hadn't still passed that we were already reaching the hash coordinates. No much dancing required and took pictures as proof.

We continued walking over the cliffs when we heard something moving down there. Then I spotted the rear legs of a roar deer hiding behind some trees. Nice, but then something unexpected. We heard what seemed like barking. But single ones. First thought was a dog, but it obviously wasn't. It was indeed the deer makings its call, but had no idea it sounded like that.

It kept making its call and another one was responding from the distance. We think we event heard a 3rd one joining the conversation from further away. That was a first one.
 +
 +
Then our hike changed sceneries. We left the stream of Talamanca and went on the other side of the mountain range towards the stream of Calders. What an unexpected canyon it forms, and the river was carrying quite an amount of water. Had to be careful crossing it on some points and stopped on a beautiful gorge. Visited a necropolis, some abandoned ''Masies'' and a few churches along the way. Also an old dam. Lot's of curiosities I was totally unaware of their existence.

 +
We found a place to have lunch by a waterfall, this one now a little dry, although it has a permanent spring on the middle part. This waterfall is hidden in a pine tree forest area where you would least expect it such an elevation change. Literally hidden. That was already the final part of the hike. The sun was starting to hit strongly, we were just around 20ºC. Not that much later we were again in Navarcles.
 +
 +
Sadly we had some time constraints, since we had to pick my friends brother back at his workplace so we got to the car and had to leave immediately. I say it's a shame since I was highly recommended visiting a pastry shop here in Navarcles. One of the best. Well, I will have to come back, maybe the hashes will accompany me again?

On a path on what seems to be above the Riera de Talamanca (Stream of Talamanca) in Talamanca

Participants

Plans

Apparently I am dragging a friend with me this time. We might park in Navarcles more or less at 09h and start walking then. Hash should be reached before noon and then our hike will continue, discovering this area, unknown at least for me. --SastRe.O (talk) 17:47, 10 April 2022 (UTC)

Expedition

A very nice expedition! Hash reached, beautiful hike and scenery and positively surprised by this area.

I tend to visit the hash using public transportation. That's what I was planning on Sunday when my friend asked me if I wanted to do something on monday. Well, as it is now I told him my plans on visting this hash and asked him if he wanted to come along. Had to convince him on other things we would see to really sell him the plan, but he was in from the beginning. What was convenient is that his brother goes to work not that far from here, so we carpooled with him and then we drove to Navarcles were our hike started.

First we started to follow the Stream of Talamanca on the Bages county. Lots of cabanes de vinya (translated as vineyard cabins) scattered along the way, the stream down there and the path going over the cliffs. So peaceful. We saw absolutely no one the whole time. On this very first part is where the hash was, right in the middle of the path. Quite lucky. 2 hours hadn't still passed that we were already reaching the hash coordinates. No much dancing required and took pictures as proof.

We continued walking over the cliffs when we heard something moving down there. Then I spotted the rear legs of a roar deer hiding behind some trees. Nice, but then something unexpected. We heard what seemed like barking. But single ones. First thought was a dog, but it obviously wasn't. It was indeed the deer makings its call, but had no idea it sounded like that.

It kept making its call and another one was responding from the distance. We think we event heard a 3rd one joining the conversation from further away. That was a first one.

Then our hike changed sceneries. We left the stream of Talamanca and went on the other side of the mountain range towards the stream of Calders. What an unexpected canyon it forms, and the river was carrying quite an amount of water. Had to be careful crossing it on some points and stopped on a beautiful gorge.
