Nou Barris district
Vallbona, where the Rec Comtal still runs open
In Vallbona the Rec Comtal still runs in the open, and residents draw on it to water their vegetable gardens. The canal was in use before the year 1000 and appears in documents from 1075; it carried water from the Besòs at Montcada more than 12 km into Barcelona, and by the 13th century 21 flour mills stood along its course. The barri's name comes from the old quadra de Vallbona, a large estate around the Torre del Baró, a tower knocked down to extend Avinguda Meridiana, today the C-58.
It is a small place, 0.6 km² with 1,401 residents in 2021, and its edges are easy to read. The C-58 and C-17 motorways cut it off from the rest of the city to the west. La Ponderosa, described as the last large market garden in Barcelona, lies to the south, the bed of the Besòs, in Santa Coloma de Gramenet, runs along the east, and to the north begins Can Sant Joan, part of Montcada i Reixac. The Pont del Congost, opened in February 2006, crosses the railway and the C-58 to join Vallbona with Torre Baró.
From here, a booked car can take you to a flight at El Prat, a train at Barcelona Sants, or next door to Montcada i Reixac or Santa Coloma de Gramenet. Send the street and number, when you need to leave, how many are traveling and with how many bags, and the trip is quoted from those details.

Questions about a chauffeur in Vallbona
Can a driver pick me up in Vallbona, on the far side of the motorways?
Yes. Vallbona is a barri of Barcelona even though the C-58 and C-17 separate it from the rest of the city. Give the street and number, or the Torre Baró | Vallbona metro station if that is easier to find, together with the date and time.
Is a trip to Montcada i Reixac or Santa Coloma de Gramenet possible?
Both towns border the barri: Can Sant Joan, a neighborhood of Montcada i Reixac, to the north, and Santa Coloma de Gramenet beyond the Besòs riverbed to the east. Short trips like these are quoted on request too; see Montcada i Reixac chauffeur service and Santa Coloma de Gramenet chauffeur service.
Can you drop us near the Rec Comtal and La Ponderosa for a walk?
Give the street where you want to start walking. The canal runs uncovered through Vallbona and La Ponderosa lies on its south side. If you want to be collected afterwards somewhere else, add that street and a time.
