In El Vallès Oriental there are many ways to enjoy your leisure time: nature, thermalism, culture and sports—a whole range of activities for all tastes. El Montseny is a mosaic of Mediterranean and central European landscape types, where climbers will find three mountain areas, the Turó de l’Home and Les Agudes, Matagalls and the Pla de la Calma. The spa town of Caldes de Montbui has a tradition that dates from Roman times and contains several spas whose water have mineral and medicinal properties, along with the Thermalia Museum, which houses works by Picasso and Manolo Hugué. The Raspall Trail shows the town planning and Art Nouveau architecture of towns such as La Garriga, Cardedeu and L’Ametlla del Vallès, which were the summer residences of the Barcelona middle class a century ago. Another track, this time dedicated to speed, is the Circuit de Catalunya, a must-see for racing fans. Home to the Formula 1 Spanish Grand Prix and the MotoGP Catalunya Grand Prix, it opens all year round to offer a variety of activities for all ages.

If you wish to go shopping without spending a lot of money, there are over a hundred shops here selling top brands at great discounts, plus a broad range of restaurants in surroundings inspired by the style of the shopping areas of a Mediterranean town.

Some 2,000 years ago the inhabitants of the area enjoyed the hot springs of this town in El Vallès Oriental. Today, visitors can still enjoy them and also visit the Roman town of Can Terrers and the Art Nouveau buildings of this summer holiday resort.
