The Castanyer de Can Cuch (or Castanyer Gros de la Casa del Bosc) is a monumental tree, the largest in Catalonia, with tables and chairs next to it. In 1960, a charcoal burner took advantage of the cavorca of the tree to settle for a year and a half, which gives an idea of the magnitude of the interior of the tree.

El Castanyer, located in the Montseny Natural Park, is the tree with the largest diameter in Catalonia. The almost 12 meters are practically empty and the two openings to the outside are the reason for inexhaustible games of the children. Within it is so great that for a time a coal-burner was living who had his own fireplace inside.
