サンティラリサカルムの洞窟・トップ10

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.

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

place that is part of the Serrallonga Bandits route

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

The ascent goes along a wide track, once at the top... It has a large viewing terrace, where you can enjoy spectacular views, 🤩 The descent, there are several of different levels, to BTT and hiking 🥾
