Has a room for overnight stay or as shelter in case of sudden bad weather

Although the climb to this small chapel is short but challenging, it's worth reaching the top. It's a charming place with spectacular views.

Trip carried out on October 13, 2024 as part of the FEEC excursion monitor training. The route has a distance of approximately 7.5 km (although I marked the track a little more because of the stops and detours to take some photos). It takes around 4 hours to complete due to multiple stops to change guides, discover plates and animal remains. Without so many stops you can easily do it in 3 hours. The route does not have any technical difficulties, although there are two or three steps that require the assistance of the guide in case the person does not have good flexibility. The vegetation is dominated by oaks and pines, white in the sunny areas and red in the shady ones. There are many bushes typical of the Mediterranean climate, such as rosemary, boxwood or steppe. Poplar and some willow can be found near the reservoir water. The reserve is particularly known for its birdlife. It hosts species such as the barred eagle, the common vulture, the great cormorant that use the area as a resting and nesting point. You can also find mammals such as wild boars and foxes, as well as reptiles typical of the Mediterranean area.

With magnificent views of Camarasa and the Segre River, at this point we will find the Cova del Tabac, a monumental cave where we will find ancient cave paintings damaged by acts of vandalism. The cave was formed by karst phenomena, meaning that water infiltrated through the stone over millions of years. As a curiosity, we know that the name Cova del Tabac comes from the powder that centuries ago was extracted from it to mix with tobacco.

Beautiful viewpoint from the top of the Mont-roig mountain range. Surely we see more than one bird. There is an information panel of these. On foggy days, if we reach the top, we will fall in love with the sea of clouds that we will see. The hermitage remains in good condition and is located near the town of Vilanova de la Sal. We can access by car, on foot or by mountain bike. There are no water sources in the hermitage, so we must go prepared.

Good views of Camarasa and the Segre river. The hermitage of Sant Jordi was built in the 19th century to replace a previous temple in ruins that can be found half a km from the current one to the north. The interior is simple with an image of Sant Jordi

As a curiosity, we know that the name of Cova del Tabac comes from the dust that was extracted from it back in the day to mix it with tobacco.
