Tips from the Community
The parish of Sant Andreu is already documented in 1083, but this church is not that one: the current one began to be built in 1825 and was inaugurated in 1848 because the town had grown and the medieval temple had been left away from the center. The curious thing is inside: it preserves a 16th-century baptismal font, probably from the old church. And the image of Sant Andreu that currently presides over the altar is also not the original: it is from after the Civil War. So the building is about 200 years old, the font about 500, and the parish almost 1,000. One of those places that seem to have nothing special until you start to scratch a little.

Quiet little town nestled between Montnegre and the sea, but with a history much tougher than it appears. Its church was fortified in the 19th century and still retains loopholes for firing from the apse. Another curiosity: part of the 16th-century church was paid for thanks to fishermen whom the bishop allowed to fish on Sundays in exchange for contributing to the works. And in the past, some farmhouses left land uncultivated so they could detect the arrival of possible invaders in time. Today you come by bike, cross a quiet town and continue your route. A few centuries ago, they looked towards the roads here to see who the hell was coming.

One of those places where it's worth slowing down a bit and looking around. Towering trees, dense forest, and a light that, when it filters through the canopy, makes this stretch spectacular. In summer, the shade is also greatly appreciated. And you're in Vallgorguina, land of forests, dolmens, and old witch stories. Very close by, in Pedra Gentil, tradition says that covens and witch gatherings were held. I don't know if any remain, but if you pass through here with this light, you perfectly understand why so many legends were born in these woods. A beautiful stretch to enjoy by bike without rushing.
