サンティラリサカルムの絶景の山頂・トップ20

Considered one of the most powerful in medieval Catalonia, but there is a little-known detail: on the hill there was a system of cisterns and underground channels that collected rainwater and brought it to the inner courtyard, which was essential because there is no fountain at the top. Remains of ceramic kilns used during the expansion works in the 14th century have also been found, indicating that some of the material was manufactured directly on the mountain to avoid endless climbs with pack animals. All of this fits with its function as a control center for Montseny, visible from many points, with the Repiaix stream rising on its slopes and the geodesic vertex crowning it. A truly strategic peak.

Besides its fame for pilgrimages, it has a lesser-known detail: for centuries it served as a refuge for travelers crossing the area when the royal road became impassable due to rain, and the clearing there acted as a signal point with bonfires to guide those coming from Sant Hilari. The final approach is sustained but clear, and the arrival combines silence, fresh air, and a panoramic view that explains why Argimon has always been a beacon in the heart of the mountains.

Hape Kerkeling, a well-known entertainer in the German-speaking world, wrote down some thoughts about a mystical experience (encounter with God) while traveling through Spain, which I would also like to offer to the viewer of this small sacred monument on the Matagalls: "To encounter God, one must first extend an invitation to him, for he will not come uninvited. It is also a form of good manners. We have free choice. He builds an individual relationship with each person. Only someone who truly loves is capable of this." (Hape Kerkeling in "Ich bin dann mal weg")

great easy route and great panoramic views great guided view with nice explanation

a marvel

Amazing views almost reaching the sea. The bike ride up is brutally steep towards the end!

I had climbed it more than 20 years ago and had a very distorted memory of it. What I was clear about was that the climb would be hard. Very good views, especially from the terrace which you climb up the metal stairs to the left of the entrance
