Route des pierres sèches à Bonastre

The Dry Stone in Bonastre

 

The route from the Pedra Seca to Bonastre crosses all the exterior of Bonastre to be able to know the Pedra Seca barracks that were discovered between the Calç Lluisot winery, Masia dels Plans, the Golfes and Bargalló.

 

The route of the Pedra Seca in Bonastre

 

This circular route covers 7.02 kilometres with a drop of 102 m. It has moderate difficulty due to the slopes and rocky paths that make up the route. In the hour and 19 minutes in which the route can be traveled, we find eight barracks that are in the highest parts of the route, some are even placed in elevated peaks above the path.
