Fantastically beautiful coastal paths, all good for walking with lots of views. Best suited in the morning or evening because of the heat and little shade.

Magnificent views of the coast of Tarragona, Creixell, Torredembarra and Altafulla. The route is ideal for walking or trail running, with stretches of track and very cool trails, the climb to the mola is quite demanding.

Documented since the 11th century, it contains defensive and residence elements, with a prison, lookout towers and a Romanesque church. This church, with three naves covered with a semicircular vault and a straight head, constitutes one of the purest and early examples of Romanesque architecture in the municipality of Tarragona. Since 1681, the castle was owned by the Archbishop of Tarragona and the Marquis of Tamarit, until at the beginning of the 20th century it was bought by an American art collector, who had it restored. The surrounding fishing village became depopulated in the 19th century due to malarial fevers generated in the area's marshes. Since 1950 he has been a Tarragona attaché.

Roman Quarry of Tarragona. Getting to this point by bike is not easy, but it is worth the effort.

La Mola offers a phenomenal panoramic view. Unfortunately the forest around La Mola suffered terrible fires a couple of years ago.
