ガリファの滝・トップ9

Waterfall encased in rough rock and an old flour mill documented since the 18th century, taking advantage of the constant force of the Llobeta stream. In addition to what everyone says, there is a little-mentioned detail here: the mill had a small auxiliary lock up the road that allowed the flow to be regulated so that the mill would not stop in dry summers. Remains of the canal and the hole where the wood of the old roller was repaired can still be seen. The path is short and cool, and the constant sound of the water explains why this corner was so valuable to the farmers of the entire valley.

Torrent de Can Montllor waterfall, normally dry, but on days of heavy rain it can be spectacular.

Fresh water source (without health guarantee) on the northern slope of Puig de la Creu. It is reached by a somewhat steep and rocky path, from Can Padró or from Can Montllor de Dalt.

Especially if it has rained, it is spectacular

idyllic location, you can breathe peace

The Bosc Negre torrent is the most important of the water courses that lead to Sot del Bac, where the Salt del Prat stands out, where a magnificent horse's tail manifests itself in the most generous periods of water of about 30 meters height, and goes to deposit the water in the gorge of the Bac, the surplus continues its course until the confluence with the river Congost, next to the Figaró. You can see how Travertine has been formed by the action of water on the rock.

03/24/2022 The Sant Miquel del Fai site remains closed for works and will partially reopen to the public once the works on the car park and the conditioning of the external spaces are finished. In this sense, visitors are reminded that they cannot access it until the opening is made. The conditioning works began with the actions related to the natural environment to be able to guarantee the safety of all visitors. In this sense, sanitation and stabilization works were carried out on the cliff up to the waterfall of the Tenes river. The security of the facilities has been strengthened, with work to stabilize the slopes and renew the 1,500 meters of railings throughout the circuit, the lighting and the external wiring. The Diputació de Barcelona has owned the Sant Miquel del Fai complex since 2017, the year in which it acquired it with the intention of adapting it. It has been closed to the public since then, in order to carry out the necessary conditioning works and decide on its use plan and management as a space within the Natural Parks Network. The downpours and the COVID-19 pandemic have delayed the works. The complex of Sant Miquel del Fai is a Cultural Asset of National Interest and is included in the Plan of Areas of Natural Interest of the Cingles de Bertí, which is why the adaptation works have been fully adjusted to the conservation objectives patrimonial In December 2018, the Diputació de Barcelona also acquired the cartulary of the Benedictine monastery of Sant Miquel del Fai, a document from the 14th century of great historical importance.

At this point I would like to quote the incomparable humorist Heinz Erhardt (1909 - 1979), who was known to a wide audience - especially in German-speaking countries - for his wordplay and "another poem" with a short quatrain: "There's certainly a lot of beauty in it, on the element, the wet. Because you can drink the water. But you can leave it alone." (H.Erhardt)
