Frozen beauty in the Dou del Bastareny

In this photographic report in La Vanguardia Readers' Photos we can enjoy in detail the frozen landscape in the Dou of the Bastareny River, in Berguedà.

The source of the Bastareny River, in the Cadí-Moixeró Natural Park, is surrounded by abundant and rich vegetation that appears dyed white with frost.

Frost is a meteorological phenomenon that consists of a drop in ambient temperature to levels below the freezing point of water and causes the water or vapor in the air to freeze, depositing it in the form of ice on surfaces, such as can be seen in these snapshots.

The excursion to see the source of the Bastareny River is as short (400 meters long round trip) as it is pleasant, with a signposted path that is not difficult. It allows you to contemplate the Bastareny waterfall and the source of the river.

Going to see the source of this tributary of the Llobregat means entering a natural area of ​​great beauty. For those who want more, this excursion is part of the route of the Seven Faces of Pedraforca, an eco-trip around this emblematic mountain.
