Hiking

Here you will see the lock of the Rosal lime factory as well as the buildings of the old Carburos Metálicos factory on the other side of the river. Nearby is Cal Rosal, a textile colony founded in 1858 that was built on an old mill at the foot of the Llobregat River. For many years it was one of the largest industrial colonies in Catalonia and had around 2,000 workers. The colony grew until the middle of the 20th century, but the textile crisis ended up closing the facilities.

Although little can be seen of the factory due to its poor condition, the walk through the area is quiet and very pleasant, it is worth the trip.
