In the surroundings of the "Pedra de la Ferradura" we can find small accumulations of granite blocks, disordered, heterometric and rounded, which accumulate in a horizontal or slightly inclined relief. These capricious formations have their origin in weathering. Later, the rainwater dissolves the feldspar and the large initial rock cracks and gives rise to rounded shapes and a kind of sand, called "sauló" in Catalan.
