Mountain biking
This river, whose name literally means "golden river", rises in the mountains of the Les Gavarres massif and meanders through the region before flowing into the Mediterranean Sea near Sant Feliu. Along its course, it brings freshness to the surroundings and irrigates the fields, although its flow is usually moderate, depending on the seasonal rainfall.

The name "Riudaura" (river of gold) has inspired local stories, although the "wealth" probably refers to the fertility it offered to the fields in the area, rather than to actual gold finds.
Although it usually has a low flow, in times of heavy rain or Mediterranean storms, the Riudaura can suddenly rise, which has caused minor flooding in the past, especially in areas close to its mouth.
