It is a short route but with a steep incline. You pass by the Pimpollada gum kiln where pine tree stumps were once burned to obtain gum or tar. You should pay attention to a stand of mature forest, marked with an explanatory lectern, which is the subject of study and conservation by the European LIFE Pinassa project. The Caro ponds are a good place to rest before returning along the same path, now uphill.
Near the summit of Caro is La Barcina (1,354 m). It can be reached without difficulty by a path that climbs and descends moderately through the summit area of Els Ports. The vegetation adapted to the climate of these ridges and the shady groves of red pine stand out. Throughout the route, the views into the interior of the massif alternate with views towards the coastal slope. There are chances of seeing birds such as the long-tailed tit or the booted eagle
