산트 셀로니 최고의 워킹 & 하이킹 경로

It doesn't have grand monuments, but it does have that village feel that doesn't need to put on airs: low houses, a quiet square, a river with swimming areas, and paths that wind through the woods, hermitages, and farmhouses. It's close to a train station, making it a good starting or ending point for a hike. People come for nature, not for show, and if you venture a little further, you'll be surrounded by trees with no cell service in ten minutes. Ideal for those seeking peaceful routes and charming, unpretentious spots.

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.

Hermitage and water fountain

Due to its location, parking areas, and restaurant... It's a special place to visit. After storm "Jana" on March 16, 2025, which left abundant water and snow... It's at 100% capacity, thus being at its best. 🤩🏞️

The information center ℹ️ De can Casades is located in zone "0" of the Montseny Natural Park, with ample parking 🅿️ and a restaurant, from where you can enjoy numerous routes, both hiking 🥾 and mountain biking 🚴. Relatively close to the highest peaks in the park: Turó de l'home, les Agudes, and Matagalls... the three most emblematic peaks of Montseny ⛰️🤩🏔️🏞️

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.

If you get close to Sta Fé, it's worth doing one of the circular tours that go around the Swamp. From the wall of the rush we could see how a black crow was weighing.
