Parc i Font de la Llorita Aquest indret, molt a la vora del centre urbà, va ser des dels anys cinquanta un lloc d'esbarjo per a molts llavanerencs. Al costat de la riera i a l'ombra de les alzines i altres arbres centenaris, es va construir una font i diversos bancs; durant alguns anys, també s'hi instal·lava, a l'estiu, un petit "merendero". Eren moltes, les colles d'amics que als vespres d'estiu es portaven les taules i cadires per anar a sopar sota la fresca dels arbres. També s'hi organitzaven ballades de sardanes i altres actes festius i també era un lloc habitual per als infants de les escoles que hi anaven, la tarda del dijous gras o altres dies, a fer una excursió i berenar.

It's a megalithic tomb, approximately 5,000 years old, discovered in 1997 and restored in 2006-2007. Located in the heart of the Montnegre i el Corredor Natural Park, it's easy to miss, but it has a history: it belonged to a Neolithic community that used it as a collective grave. Interestingly, remains of the tumulus that covered it are still preserved, which is unusual, and its orientation seems related to astronomical events, like other dolmens in the area. It's an archaeological rarity in the middle of a prime cycling area, perfect for stopping and reflecting that humans once walked this path... but without helmets.

They've now built a staircase to access the Dolmen... With this staircase, just a few meters long... It seems they'll save the site from erosion... Sometimes the conservation and environmental councils are pitiful... It seems the only ones degrading the paths... are hikers and bikers... When we're fed up with seeing how the water destroys the paths to the point where we can't pass... 🙃

Megalithic structure Rebuilt in 1855, Where the original structure was a 4000 year old DOLMEN, which served As a chamber tomb Simple...🧐

It belongs to the Montnegre Park and almost all the paths can be done either on foot or by bike (the dolmen path is quite broken "stones")

Next to the stream and in the shade of oaks and other centuries-old trees, a fountain and several benches were built; for some years, a small "merendero" was also installed there in the summer. There were many groups of friends who on summer evenings brought their tables and chairs to have dinner under the cool shade of the trees.

It is a large granite block located between Turó de Montalt (596 m) and Turó del Mig (550 m), a hill where the municipal limits of Arenys de Munt, Dosrius and Sant Vicenç de Montalt meet. Of the two stones, the smaller one has an engraving that seems to represent a horseshoe, although the meaning is unknown. It could be, for example, a mark to delimit the old parishes. Granite is a hard rock, with a granular texture, which in the Maresme has been used for construction. Fresh granite is known as "snake's eye" as it is made up of a black mica which, in contrast to the other components, is reminiscent of a snake's eye. In this environment and during the next section of the route, we will find small accumulations of granite blocks, disordered, heterometric and rounded, which accumulate in a horizontal or slightly inclined relief. These capricious formations have their origin in weathering. Later, the rainwater dissolves the feldspar and the large initial rock cracks and gives rise to rounded shapes and a kind of sand, called "sauló" in Catalan.

El Montalt is a mountain belonging to the Catalan coastal range, within the Sierra del Corredor and the protected natural area in which it is included. A few kilometers from the coast, the top is surrounded by forest. A common point to face the final meters of ascent is the Coll de la Ferradura, a pass located to the northeast. It is a crossroads of different paths and forest tracks and, from this point, the path to the summit is narrow and has a very steep slope. The northern slope enters completely into the natural park, with different plateaus, other peaks and the Creu de Rupit, an outstanding cross in the middle of the path. To the northeast is the Sanctuary of the Corridor, with a car park and a tourist service office. From this point, through forest tracks, To the south, we find two towns, Sant Andreu de Llavaneres and Sant Vicenç de Montalt, well connected by tracks and paths. In the same way possible starting points for the ascent, to the west is the municipality of Dosrius and its population center of Canyamars, while to the east is the town of Arenys de Munt. On the other hand, the first stage of the Camino del Norte, or GR 83 long-distance path, which begins in the town of Mataró, passes very close, along its northern slope. Its top houses a geodesic vertex and a mailbox, offering magnificent views of the entire Maresme coast.
