The Font de Can Merlès hydraulic complex consists of a mine, a well with a tower and a large pool. The spring water comes from the mine, so it is possible that it does not flow much of the year. Instead, the water in the pond is pumped from the well with the energy of a solar panel. The whole complex was restored and enhanced in 2010. An informative poster defines all the elements that make up the hydraulic complex of this source.

Very fun trail to go from Sant Just to Ctra de Vallvidrera. Technically, it is not very complicated to climb, so it can be done without problems. Downhill is a pass!
