To adapt to different timeframes and levels of immersion, Discover the Alt Maestrat is structured into two routes within the same territory and guided by the same Activelo philosophy:
ESSENTIAL ROUTE · SANT PAU · CULLA · BENASSAL
- Distance: Approximately 25.8 km
- Elevation gain: Approximately +700 m
- Estimated moving time: 1 h – 1 h 15 min
- Pace: Accessible and progressive
- This route connects Sant Pau with the surroundings of Culla and concludes in Benassal, offering an initial encounter with the rolling mountain landscape, medieval heritage, and the authentic rural character of the Alt Maestrat.
SIGNATURE ROUTE · SANT PAU · CULLA · BENASSAL · L’AVELLÀ
- Distance: Approximately 55.2 km
- Elevation gain: Approximately +1,080 m
- Estimated moving time: 2 h – 2 h 15 min
- Experience: More comprehensive and unhurried
- This route extends the journey into areas of greater territorial and scenic depth, ending at the natural and heritage site of L’Avellà (Catí), turning the day into a total immersion in the Alt Maestrat.
These two routes serve as the foundation upon which all Activelo products are built.
What’s included in this experience?
At Activelo, we don’t speak in terms of "better" or "worse" products; instead, we offer different ways to live the same route, tailored to your available time and the type of gastronomic or cultural experience you wish to include.
Activelo Discover
Activelo Discover utilizes the Essential Route and is designed as a first contact with the Activelo philosophy. The client follows the guided tour at a relaxed pace and enjoys a premium brunch with local products at the Activelo tent, located midway through or at the end of the ride. This option does not include cultural experiences or a restaurant meal. The goal is to discover the territory, understand how we work, and experience the essence of Activelo in just a few hours.
Activelo Social
Activelo Social also utilizes the Essential Route but is oriented toward a more social and gastronomic experience. In this format, there is no brunch during the ride. The true value comes at the end of the journey with a restaurant lunch, which may take place at:
- Novella (Benassal)
- La Solaneta (Culla)
- La Carrasca (Culla) It is an ideal experience for groups looking to combine activity, landscape, and a gastronomic experience in charming rural settings.
Activelo Experience
Activelo Experience utilizes the Signature Route and represents the complete Activelo experience in this territory. During the tour, the group enjoys a premium brunch at the Activelo tent at the halfway point, designed as a light recovery stop. Additionally, a cultural or gastronomic experience is included, with the possibility of visiting:
- Els Masets (La Torre d’en Besora) – traditional dairy product preparation.
- Les Mines de Culla – historic mining heritage.
- El Mas de la Mezquita – a showcase of ancient trades and traditional rural life.
- Benassal Water Environment – tradition linked to natural mineral water. The day concludes with a lunch in L’Avellà (Catí), set in a natural and heritage site of great value, and the presentation of an Activelo gift box with local products.
Activelo Premium
Activelo Premium is based on the same route and structure as the Activelo Experience but elevates the level of exclusivity, comfort, and personalization.
