Can Merlès Spring

Highlight • Natural Monument

The Font de Can Merlès hydraulic complex consists of a mine, a well with a tower and a large pool. The spring water comes from the mine, so it is possible that it does not flow much of the year. Instead, the water in the pond is pumped from the well with the energy of a solar panel. The whole complex was restored and enhanced in 2010. An informative poster defines all the elements that make up the hydraulic complex of this source.

A large esplanade between Turó d'en Corts and Turó de l'Espinagosa, which was formed by successive dumping of rubble. In 1990 it was conditioned as a viewpoint. It has benches and different stone pines. It has 45 parking spaces. It is a good starting point for itineraries of Sant Pere Mártir.

Villa Paula

Highlight • Historical Site

Villa Paula, designed by the famous architect Jerome Granell i Manresa in 1912, is located on Carretera de les Aigües in Barcelona, on a private plot of about 35,000 m², one of the largest private estates in the city of Barcelona.

Of course, you can not miss a vast garden, a swimming pool designed in detail and privileged views that are just a few minutes from the Collserola Natural Park. The house is completely restored, but maintains many original architectural details, such as its façade, the hydraulic and marble floors, the high ceilings with moldings, the stained glass windows, the curved stairs or one of its hallmarks: the green Arabic tiles on its roof.

The house has been restored with great care. It maintains many original architectural details, including its façade, hydraulic and marble floors, high ceilings with moldings, beautiful stained glass windows, curved staircases and a green Arabic tiled roof.

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.

A nice long wooden bridge with great views of Barcelona. It is as wide as the rest of Carretera de las Aguas so it is nice to ride on.

Font de la Mandra

Highlight • Natural Monument

The front of the Font de la Mandra is prism-shaped, with the back covered by a pile of stones, from which comes the pipe that pours abundant water into a pond at ground level. To the right and left is a wall of loose stones on which a metal mesh forms two long benches that are used to sit on. It is easily accessible from the nearby car park.

It is located at one end of the large dirt esplanade that forms the Plaza Mireia.
