Exploring the Old Botanical Garden of Barcelona

Join us for a nature walk through the historical Old Botanical Garden of Barcelona, a hidden gem nestled in an ancient quarry. Spanning 4 hectares, the garden features unique and rare trees, including the towering Pterocarya, and even fossils dating back 10,000 years. Despite its secluded nature and limited accessibility, participants will uncover surprises at every turn. The tour provides insights into the diverse plant life and the historical significance of the site. Attendees are encouraged to wear comfortable clothing and sturdy footwear while bringing along a water bottle. Guided by Mireia Teixidó, this experience is not suitable for those with reduced mobility, but it promises an enriching exploration of Barcelona's natural heritage.
