Welcome to the webpage of La Ricotta. Here you can find information on the project, its motivations, its goals, its implementation, the description of its activities, events, future projects, and ways of colaborating for whom might wish it.
A description of the project is available here. A big deal of the project is managed by the Asociación Cultural La Ricotta, whose dynamics is founded on the documents at this link and which try to reflect the phylosophy the project lies on. Everyone who might be interested in knowing it are welcome to visit it and a spend a period in it. Here we describe how the hospitality works.
We will be glad to provide further information to whoever would like to receive it.
The project is located in As Barreiras, a village – which has been uninhabited until this project started – in the municipality of Castro Caldelas (Ourense). It is easily reachable from Ourense via the bus to Raigada, getting off either in San Xulián or in Castro Caldelas. From both stops, you can reach As Barreiras with a 30-40 minute walk. For most of the origins of your trip, it can be advisable to first reach Ourense via train or bus, and then take the bus to Raigada. We recommend to organise your trip via a collective transportation, for several reasons: environmental; because of the quick saturation of villages, towns and streets (especially in vacation periods); because of the reduced space for hosting your private vehicle en As Barreiras and neighbouring areas (leaving it to whom truly does not have other options).
