The L’Angla spring is located on the left or south side of the Calders river valley, between the Llac de Navarcles and Viladecavalls de Calders, near Navarcles but in the municipality of Calders and, consequently, in the Moianès region. The spring takes its name from the L’Angla farmhouse, documented since ancient times, through which the GR-3 trail passes. The spring is below the farmhouse, on a shady half-slope, facing a cliff of the winding Calders river and next to the L’Angla stream, in an oak grove with sections eroded by abusive logging and by excessive use of paths and foot traffic. The spring springs from above a rock. Around it, a small stone house was built, almost like a toy, large enough to sit in, with the back wall half made of natural rock where the water flows and half built of stone, two benches that follow the side walls and the water circulating on the ground and coming out of the door.
The L’Angla spring is one of those that always flows.
The L’Angla oak, with its beautiful shape and large proportions and therefore listed as a unique tree of Calders, stands out a few dozen meters below the spring. Text by Jordi Badia.
