Rural path in a natural environment in the Berguedà region.

The Berguedà region has launched a comprehensive project to rehabilitate its 2,400-kilometer network of paths, with an investment of 900,000 euros planned until 2028.

After detecting progressive deterioration in the trails, the Barcelona Provincial Council has conducted an exhaustive audit that has allowed for the inventory of nearly 2,000 signs. This diagnosis is the fundamental step to begin maintenance and modernization tasks for the routes.
The project, presented at the Sant Francesc de Berga convent, is funded through the European POCTEFA program. The main objective is to simplify current signage, often confusing due to the presence of multiple contradictory indicators, and to establish a unified maintenance model for the entire region.

"Currently there are posts with multiple different signs to go to the same place."
