The 14 Most Amazing Peaks around Susqueda

We arrived at a beautiful spot, but from there it was impossible to find the rest of the route... It felt like a wall going down. Perhaps with climbing gear?

Santa Bárbara is a hermitage known and recognized by all the inhabitants of the plain of Ter such as Cellera, Anglès or Sant Martí Sapresa. Together with PuuigdeFrou they form a ridge line that shows the first mountains of the Guilleries from this northern side of the mountain range with a beautiful Hermitage, currently preserved and full of life, which gives us beautiful views of the area.

Great views even though I was in a hurry today. There are many tables and benches to sit on, but I have not seen a fountain and in the attached farmhouse I would say that no one lives there.

The current hermitage of Santa Bárbara is structured in two parts.[1]​ On one side is what would be the two-story shelter covered with a gabled roof with slopes facing the façade. On the ground floor there are three openings, such as two small windows framed by stone posts and covered by a wrought iron lattice. But above all, the lintel portal with a semicircular arch with some medium-sized voussoirs stands out. On the first floor there are two openings of similar typology, that is, rectangular, with a monolithic lintel forming a flat arch, stone pillars and a worked parapet.[1]​ On the other hand, the hermitage itself is arranged, covered with a mixed roof, that is, half with gable slopes on the façade and the other half with a single slope on the façade. On the ground floor, the large voussoir portal with a semicircular arch stands out with some large and very well squared voussoirs.[1]​ As for the first floor, we find a rectangular opening with a monolithic lintel and stone pillars with a stained glass window that reproduces a tree. But in this sector the impressive belfry with a single lowered arch eye stands out especially. Its bell contains a long inscription. On one side it says: "Parish of Sant Martí Sapresa: Hermitage of Santa Bárbara 1952 Laus Deu." And to the other "Friends of Santa Bàrbara 2002: the friends of Santa Bàrbara to the Poble d'Anglès and to all those who venerate this indret".[1]​ The interior of the hermitage is a small chapel with a single nave, with two sections and a chancel and basically supported by two pointed arches with an arrow much more accentuated than the light. The section of the head, where we find the half-round apse, would correspond to the roof on one slope; The middle section would correspond to the bell tower and the foot section is where we find the gabled roof. In this sector we also find two important elements, such as a large quadrangular opening, with a monolithic lintel, stone pillars and a worked parapet, and a colored stained glass window that alludes to the crucifixion. The other would be a stone portal that communicates with the shelter.[1]​ In the section of the head there is a small altar table, as well as a small niche framed in stone that houses an image of Saint Barbara made in Osor following the resin procedure or technique.[1]

Awesome view. You can spend the night in the restaurant.

Rocky corridor about 4 meters wide and about 20 meters long with cliffs on both sides.

With its 1026m height, Puisallança is the highest peak of the Sierra de Ventanas. It is located in the municipality of Sant Aniol de Finestres, in the Catalan region of Garrotxa. It is included in the list of the 100 summits of the FEEC.

Cabrera is part of the Sierra of the same name, also formed by Pla d'Aiats, Les Vores de Masellera, Montcau, Puig dels Llops and Puig d'en Bac. At its top we find the remains of the Castle of Cabrera, it was a finished castle that defended the Esquirol valley. The castle of Barrés depended on it, in the same municipality of L'Esquirol. There are very few ruins left, practically limited to the base of a round tower. There is also a geodesic vertex and a reference round table illustrates the majestic 360-degree panorama: Montserrat, La Mola, Rasos de Peguera, Pedraforca, Puigmal, Bassegoda hill, Canigó, Albera, the Gulf of Roses, Montseny ... A superb watchtower!
