Carretera de les Aigües

It runs along the slope facing the city of Barcelona, u200bu200bfrom the neighborhood of Penitents to the neighborhood of Pedralbes and Esplugues de Llobregat.

The carretera de les Aigües is a walking path located in the Serra de Collserola, in the municipality of Barcelona.

The path has good views over the city and is commonly used for walking. It is particularly popular with cyclists and cross-country runners who use it for their training, taking advantage of its completely flat profile and the ease of access provided by the Vallvidrera Funicular, which has a stop there, and other means of transport.

It has recently been extended at the end of Llobregat to connect with Esplugues (in Plaça Mireia), and at the end of Besòs there is a project to extend it while integrating other existing tracks (this extension would lose the horizontal character of the rest of the walk). It is part of the Green Round of Barcelona.
