The Pantà de Brinxa is a water reservoir located in the Riera de Fuirosos, in Catalonia, Spain. This reservoir, located 219 meters above sea level, is located in an area known as Sot de la Brinxa, also called Gorg Negre due to the dark color that the water acquires in this place. The main purpose of its construction was to guarantee the availability of water for irrigation of fields and meadows in the valley. This project was carried out by the owners of can Riera, who also built other reservoirs in the area, such as Crous, can Riera and can Torres.

Furthermore, the Pantà de la Brinxa is located near the Montnegre i el Corredor Natural Park, in the Vallès Oriental region, a region that stands out for its scenic value and its wooded environment, rich in holm oaks, cork oaks, chestnut trees, among others. .

I don't know if it's because of the rains of the last few weeks, but I was surprised by the amount of water in the swamp and the stream of Fuirosos.
It remains pending for the next exit to continue up, following the river. Today we turn back to go to Santa Maria del Montnegre.
