Pi d'en Xandri

Highlight • Natural Monument

The Pi d'en Xandri is one of the oldest pines in Catalonia and an ecological, cultural and historical symbol of Sant Cugat. It is estimated that he was born around the year 1774, at the time of Mozart, Kant and Napoleon Bonaparte, now about 248 years ago.

It is a stone pine (pinus pinea) and is located in the Torre Negra rural park. It has a considerable height -23 meters- and a trunk of 3.20 meters in diameter. Its crown is 21 meters wide and has a peculiar shape, like a parasol, with a wayward, half-naked branch. The Pi d'en Xandri lost part of its branches due to the snow that accumulated on Christmas night in the year 62, when a formidable snowfall covered Catalonia in white. In 1997 some vandals tried to saw it off and set it on fire. It was necessary to graft a piece of live trunk so that the sap could circulate again and it was held with the trunks that surround it today to facilitate its healing.

Cypresses Viewpoint

Highlight • Viewpoint

It is located at the southern end of the Collserola mountain range, on Passeig de les Aigües, below Sant Pere Mártir. It can be accessed via Passeig de les Aigües from the walkway that goes over the road from Sarriá to Vallvidrera (BV-1462) and also from Plaza Mireia, in the municipality of Esplugues de Llobregat, passing through the wooden walkway next to the Sant Pere Mártir water tank.

From the viewpoint you can see part of the Barcelona plain, the Llobregat delta and the mountains that surround it. A few years ago, when the site was restored, some specimens of cypresses were added to the three already existing ones, which give the viewpoint its name.
