Local tips

  • The T-usual covers 30 days of unlimited zone 1 travel for 22.80 euros, and all of Barcelona is zone 1, but it must be loaded on a personal T-mobilitat card or the TMB app.
  • Check the Collserola park website before a trail run, since swine fever rules currently close its unpaved forest tracks.
  • Coworking day passes start at 10 euros with a median of 25 euros, so test a space for a day before paying for a month.
