Sant Cugat River, located between the Collserola Park and the town of Sant Cugat, is characterized by a very diverse landscape, due to the proximity of the natural park and the development of agricultural land uses, as well as the existence of the area adjoining to the river that are below the water table. To ensure these areas, it is proposed to raise the level of land, using materials such as wood, gabion … according to their interaction with the landscape.

It is proposed to recover Sant Cugat River by desigining a walk to enjoy the surrounding and create sports or leisure activities, while the trail connects with the surrounding landscape: the Collserola Park, cropland, the motorway and Ripoll River.
