Saint Martin of El Brull

Highlight • Settlement

The town of Brull is located in the Catalan region of Osona, which belongs to the province of Barcelona. The town is located right at the entrance to the Montseny Natural Park. Although it is a small population center, it enjoys a large area of land, mostly dedicated to the cultivation of vegetables, cereals, etc.

The population enjoys a privileged location; It is right at the top of a valley formed by the Matagalls and Pla de la Calma mountains. It is located at an altitude of about 800 m above sea level, which gives photographic plans of the area worth seeing, seeing on the horizon, on the one hand, the Pyrenees and, on the other, Montserrat and La Mola; getting to see the coastal mountain range of Barcelona.

Church of Romanesque origin, enlarged and transformed by the reforms of 1767 and 1872. The bell tower has a square tower, with four lumbar arches on each side, as decorative elements. The facade is a gable, modified in 1767. It has a round window that illuminates the nave. There are three chapels on each side and at the bottom of the nave, the polygonal presbytery.

Bordoriol Pass

Highlight • Mountain Pass

Long climb with spectacular views on the southern side. And a good amount of forest which provides a bit of cover from the sun during the summer.

Towards the upper part, it is possible to turn off on a small road, to connect other side, or continue up to Turó do l'Home.

I prefer descenting on the southern side, so that you really get to enjoy the views.
