Who we are?

Help environmental sustainability, including local businesses and encourage the consumption of local products.
It allows to bring value to a unique and singular heritage, that has shaped the landscape and the social and economic history of the central Catalonia.
Parc de la Séquia
Parc de la Sèquia is the institution that manages the facilities linked to la Séquia of Manresa and disseminates the importance of water for the human development.
In the same way that the medieval canal (14th century) has been important for the progress of Manresa and the Pla de Bages, we understand water as the fundamental element for the development of local economies, the quality of life and the culture of a land. Working between water and territory, the Parc de la Séquia develops outreach, leisure and tourism activities aimed for families, groups and schools.

The World Travel & Tourism Council (WTTC) Safe Travel badge recognizes us for the safety and prevention measures we have implemented against the COVID-19.
Biosphere certificate
We are a collaborating entity of the Geopark of Central Catalonia in which we are certified with the Biosphere Tourism Sustainability Commitment seal.
