If you arrive here by bicycle from the north you can go down to the Monasterios urbanization along the Costera del Gats (west). If you continue east you will reach the Picaio antennas (and if you continue, the Picaio cross) or if you go down you will reach the Santuari de la Virgen Milagrosa. On this branch the descent is through a very rocky ravine not suitable for most cyclists.
