Beautiful hermitage that can normally only be seen from the outside. Well preserved. The place has shade and good views and it is ideal to eat a sandwich and recharge your batteries.

Pla de Sant Miquel or Pla dels Soldats

Highlight • Trail

This crossroads is known as the Pla dels Soldats or Pla de Sant Miquel (in the first case it is known by this name because it was a French military campsite in the French War (1808-1814).
There are three possibilities to continue:

The path on the right goes along the Camino de las Ermitas in the direction of Pla de Taràntules where the upper station of Sant Joan is installed.
The road that continues in a straight line is the Camino de las Costas or the Camino de las Baterias in the direction of Collbató.
The path that turns to the left is the Camino de la Cuadra de San Miguel that goes down towards the Coll de la Fita or converges with the Camino de la Cueva Santa and in Collbató.

November 19, 2022,Montserrat: Del Monestir a Sant Jeroni – Ruta Circular

Wonderful tour starting from Montserrat Monastery. The parking lot was already crowded in the off-season at noon. Either come early in the morning or take the cog railway from the valley. 1st part of the route quite steep ascent, felt to 2/3 by stairs. Very very windy at the top, take appropriate clothing with you. The descent is then much …

The myriad spiers and spiers emit a greyish-red color that comes from the conglomerate of caked river pebbles called Nagelfluh. The center of this mountain is the Benedictine monastery with its black Madonna (la moreneta), …

A truly interesting trail that is peppered with magnificent views. Hiked up and ran down. Not particularly technical but climbs are sustained at some points. Done in summer, so conditions were dry and hot.
