Tips from the Community
The Coll de Pradell is one of the most demanding and spectacular ascents in Berguedà. The road winds through forests, meadows, and old mining landscapes, witnesses to the intense coal mining activity that marked the history of this region for over a century. Today, silence has replaced the noise of the mines, but the landscape still bears the mark of that industrial past while rewarding the effort with magnificent views over the Pre-Pyrenean mountains.

From this point, you can see Berga, the historic capital of Berguedà, surrounded by the mountains that for decades set the pace of coal mining in the region. Its old town, presided over by the church of Santa Eulàlia and the old walls, retains the character of a city that has managed to combine its industrial heritage with a long cultural and mountain tradition.

Sant Llorenç de Morunys is a town in the Solsonès region located at 925 metres above sea level, surrounded by the Port del Comte, Busa and Verd mountain ranges. It has a well-preserved medieval centre, with walls, cobbled streets and the 11th-century Romanesque church of Sant Llorenç, as the centre of the complex. It is a key point of passage and stop for mountain routes, cycle tours and crossings through the Pre-Pyrenees. The entrance and exit of the town can be done via roads with demanding slopes or forest tracks depending on the itinerary, but it is always worth stopping there to recover energy, fill up water bottles or take a quality break. A good place to charge batteries, both physical and e-bike.
