サンサルバドールデグアルディオラのおすすめウォーキング＆ハイキングルート

Historic center of Catalonia, more beautiful than the official one.

A carved fountain consisting of a semi-buried body framed by a large arch, which creates a small elliptical apse, at the midpoint of which is the fountain. The water falls, from a rectangular niche framed in another with a pointed arch, onto a circular sink with a base. On the side of the fountain there is a bench attached, running. The set is completed with a stone table in the center of the space. This is built with masonry and the ashlars are seen in its entire front part, and inside, up to half height, the curvilinear part of the chapel was plastered. There still remains, at the highest point of the arch, the part of a fastening element from which a chain hangs, and at an even higher point, crowning the set, there is a large piece of stone with the inscription "Girada 1923". Observations: The fountain is located in Monistrolet, in an artificial widening of the road and in a space formed from the fountain itself and small stone walls that follow the lateral profile of the work. It can be reached by the path that comes from Can Servitge passing through the deposits of Can Gallifa or Cisternes de Monistrolet (file 390) and the Font del Rector (file 391), crossing the Riera de Rajadell, or from Monistrolet, skirting Can Gallifa (file 98) along the path that surrounds it to the W., and passing through the Camp de la Girada, cross the Riera de Rajadell through a ford, and from there follow a path in a westerly direction. The fountain is located 700m. in a straight line to the SW of Can Gallifa. The name of the Girada is due to the curve that the Riera de Rajadell makes in this sector. Campaign masses have been celebrated at the site with the stone table as an altar. You can see that the beautiful vault of this fountain is in the shape of an ellipse. This design, apart from having an artistic motif, also gives it a surprising acoustic property. If we look for the two foci of this ellipse and place a person in the area near each of them, they will hear the other person's voice clearly amplified and with an enveloping effect. From an area close to the focus, such as the beginning of the stone benches, we can also hear the effect.

More of a hike to the top, not a run.

The summit is crowned by three large stainless steel crosses. A plaque informs that the UEC Anoia renewed the crosses on February 24, 1991 and that they were blessed by the rector of Castellfollit del Foix, Bishop Josep Maria Mas i Busqué. The views are similar to those of Cogulló, although from here we have an interesting full panorama of this peak and the ridge that joins both peaks.

peak of Cogulló de Cal Torre, a mountain included in the list of the 100 Peaks of the FEEC and bordering the municipalities of Rajadell and Castellfollit del Foix. At its summit, the ridges of the Serra del Colomer (which we climbed), the Serra de Cal Torre (parallel to the first and also called the Palomes on some maps), and the ridge of La Serra converge , through which we will continue the path. From the top we have magnificent views of Montserrat, Sant Llorenç, Montseny and part of Central Catalonia. But on clear days we can also see the Pyrenees, such as Pedraforca, Gallina Pelada or Cadí. At the top we will find a wooden fire watch house as well as a geodesic vertex (reference 277112001). This peak is one of the disputed points for the centrality of Catalonia, for which, every September 11, a very crowded gathering is held there. Unfortunately, the summit is accessible to motor vehicles, motorbikes but also all-terrain vehicles, which damages the balance of the environment.

The church of Sant Esteve de Marganell has been documented since the year 1143, although it is likely that it already existed in the 11th century, since Marganell appears in the records as early as the year 924. It is a construction of Romanesque origin, although it has undergone various restorations. It has a single nave, with a single apse located to the east, without any type of decoration and without openings. The bell tower is modern and in good condition, unlike the rest of the building, since the nave is sunken and in a state of ruin.

Very cute after it rained

Religious sanctuary located in the municipality of Marganell (Bages) included in the Inventory of the Architectural Heritage of Catalonia. It is a Romanesque construction that preserves certain features of the time although it has been quite reformed.
