To prevent
you from getting lost, each mountain-bike trail is provided with
specific plates every 500 m (545 yards) and especially at
crossings or when the direction suddenly changes..
. |
|
|
There are
five types of plates:
. |
|
|
|
Direction
plates: They
show the right direction that must be followed as well as the
number and colour-code difficulty rating of the trail. |
|
|
|
Linking
plates between Centres BTT of
Catalonia: They show the direction that must be followed in
order to link up with other Centres BTT de Catalonia’s
routes.
.

|
|
|
Incorrect
direction plates. Sometimes, in order to reinforce where the
correct path is at some of the crossroads,
there are signs indicating which paths lead in the wrong
direction.
|
|
|
|
Warning
plates: Watch
out whenever you find one of these plates. They warn you of a
possible danger, e.g. a busy road, a stream or a sudden change
of direction.

area, bike washing service, showers and restrooms.
