Together with the gorges of Canet, the Gorg del Diable is the main swimming area of the Llémena Valley. It is located 30 minutes from the bridge that is close to the hermitage of Sant Medir, and is part of Pla de Sant Joan, a neighborhood located between Sant Martí de Llémena and Llorà. It is a very large gorge, and the hike to get there requires some steep downhill walking, not very recommended for children and the elderly. To swim there, you have to jump straight into the water, as it is not possible to walk down. Then, to go up again, you must use one of the ropes located on the sides.

Natural pool located in the municipality of Planes d'Hostoles. It is in the course of the Brugent river and when it takes enough water, it forms a waterfall of considerable dimensions that make this place a spectacular site. Its access is from Via Verde from El Carrilet de Girona to Olot.
