요렌스 델 페네데스‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪4‬개의 산 정상

hiking boots recommended

The Puig de la Cova (672 m) rises above Aiguaviva and offers one of the best panoramic views of the entire Montmell mountain range. The peak is easily recognizable by its silhouette and the small rock shelter nearby, the Cova, which gives it its name. The climb by MTB is tough, with rocky sections and a steep slope that force you to push the bike at some points, but the reward is brutal: from the top you can see the Penedès, the sea on clear days and the entire Montmell ridge. I got there by electric bike and, if you have a little experience, you can reach the summit without getting off. The path is full of rolled pebbles that complicate the route, but there are also sections of firm rock that give you confidence to move forward. When you reach the top, the views are 360º, epic and panoramic, a perfect viewpoint that combines effort, history and nature before launching yourself on the descents back to the village.

Very good route, I only started too late around 5:00 p.m. and then I found myself in the dark, thank goodness I had a flashlight and still a highly recommended route. The first part is quite uphill but the second part is much easier.

Here you will find a sign marking the peak. The views of the valley and the sea are also very beautiful.

Beautiful tower not only for its views but also for the views it offers of the Penedès plain. The demanding climb is worth it!

Located on the hill of the same name, at an altitude of 468 meters, on the Marmellar stream and dominating the entire extension of the Penedès plain, the Castellot is one of the most recognizable surveillance and defense structures of the medieval period. This small fortress had the mission of serving as a lookout and defense of the territory in the event of an attack by the Saracens. Due to its small size, it never had a castle structure, it was just a watchtower and defense tower, with a small attached construction and next to it the primitive chapel of Sant Miquel. The complex is dated between the end of the 10th century and the beginning of the 11th century, with some modifications made in the 13th century, before being abandoned and becoming a temporary refuge for shepherds, vagabonds and bandits. A second phase of restoration was completed in March 2021, mainly focused on the watchtower, the upper part of which can now be accessed via an internal staircase.
