Pantano del Foix. Road between Castellet and Vilanova i Geltrú. Lots of traffic but the road surface is in very good condition. Asphalt. Watch out for Sunday drivers.

Foix reservoir. 1928. Located in a spectacular setting. A beautiful road runs alongside it, and the beautiful village of Castellet.
