The story

La Pitavola del Comapedrosa in Arinsal

La Pitavola del Comapedrosa marks the anniversary of Comapedrosa Natural Park each October in Arinsal with a local-produce market, guided park visits, mushroom foraging, a hike to Estany de les Truites, a navigation-focused orientation race, and evening stargazing, spread across roughly fifty scheduled activities over the weekend.

An orientation race through a natural park, followed by an evening of stargazing, is not the usual combination for a small-town fair, but that pairing is what defines La Pitavola del Comapedrosa.

What is special

The part that makes it specific.

The place changes

Few autumn markets are organised around a protected natural park's anniversary rather than a saint's day or harvest theme, and the combination of a mushroom-foraging walk, a lake hike, an orientation race and evening stargazing gives La Pitavola a naturalist's programme rather than a standard stalls-and-food format

The mystery stays covered

It is also distinct from the separately branded Comapedrosa Skyrace endurance race that starts from the same village, which visitors researching the area sometimes conflate with this event
