Characteristics

Location

From Torrelles de Llobregat you must go to the Can Güell residential development and follow Quarta Avinguda to the end. Follow the track taking all the turnoffs to the right until reaching an electricity pylon. Continue along a dirt path that descends steeply and continues in steps in the rocky area. Leave a small col on the right and continue toward the SE for about forty metres to the last rocky crest, elevation 323.5.
