피네다 데 마르‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪6‬개의 산 정상

Long before the current metal structure, this spot was already being used in the 19th century as a signal post, where forest rangers gave visual warnings from a wooden platform. It wasn't chosen solely for its height, but also because it's a place where the wind changes abruptly, which helps detect smoke from a great distance. In the 1970s, a rotating fiberglass cabin for continuous surveillance was tested there, but it was discarded because the wind moved it too much. An unassuming spot, but with a hidden history behind its forestry function.

Quite a quiet place to visit by bike or on foot. In my case I went up from Pineda de Mar passing through Hortsavinya. At the top of Turó Gros there is a watchtower with views of the entire area, if you go up on a cloudless day, it is more than worth going. The tower is abandoned and without a padlock. Quite a recommendable place! I will surely go up there again.

beautiful ruin with a breathtaking view

The Gros hill is not the highest of the mountain range, but it is close (764). The watchtower raises you about 20 meters higher and from the top you have views of 4 bands: 1> On the coast and sea of La Selva and Maresma, 2> In Barcelonès (Collserola can be seen on the horizon), Bages and Vallès (Montserrat), 3> In the Gironès (you can distinguish the Rocacorba with the antennas) and 4> In the massif of Montseny and the castle of Montsoriu. Getting here requires a lot of effort, but it's worth it! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

Old ruins with fantastic views.

Magnificent 360º views from the highest point, unfortunately this day there was haze. The ascent is short and on a track in good condition, once up you can go down the other side along a fun path that will take you to the starting point.

The small rocky island can be visited on foot from Blanes Bay. There are all sorts of shops and restaurants all around. And actually: This is roughly where the border between Costa Brava (towards the northeast) and Costa del Maresme (towards the southwest) runs.
