This action allows you to complete the itinerary in a circular way.
Camina Pirineus, the Alt Urgell ecotourism project, has finished an action of great interest on the Coll de Creus itinerary in the municipality of La Vansa i Fórnols with the construction of a flyover, among other resources around of the activity, which aims to highlight an area of high geological interest, currently signposted in a one-way itinerary along a forest track, with points difficult to access for the general public and of all ages.
This action makes it possible to complete the circular route from the Trava pass, where a parking and picnic area has been set up. The route is all on foot, first along the Banyeres forest track to the Coll de Creus, from where you continue along the path between oak forests and agricultural fields until you reach, via a wooden boardwalk, the area of the main geological interest of the Coll de l'Endurant conglomerates. From this location you return along the ridge of the pine forest, passing through conditioned areas such as landscape viewpoints, benches and small wooden footbridges crossing ravines to the start of the car park at Coll de la Trava.
Therefore, in this action, with the support of the Cadí Moixeró Natural Park, construction and slope containment work has been carried out, the wooden flyover, wooden guardrails for the risk of falls, small overpasses or walkways and runoff drainages and improvement of tourist facilities, in addition to facilitating and ordering the parking of vehicles for users, all forming an experiential and guided ecotourism product of high geological interest.
The Camina Pirineus project is a clear boost to the territory through the creation of the Alt Urgell landscape network, for the promotion of different ecotourism resources: viewpoints, lookouts, itineraries around the landscape, fauna, vegetation, geology, climate and paleontology.
For this reason, the protection and rehabilitation of protected natural areas and spaces and the preservation of cataloged cultural heritage increases the competitiveness of Alt Urgell's tourist offer and reactivates the economy.
