Parc del Montnegre i el Corredor

The dolmen preserves the remains of a possible roof mound and six worked granite slabs, all fallen and scattered on the summit and slopes of a pass after the destruction and plundering of the tomb. A large, four-sided, well-worked anthropomorphic slab, halfway up the NW slope, could be part of the roof or a menhir.

The Pedra de les Olles or Pedra del Pla dels Forcs is a grouping of large granite stones with more than twenty insculptures in small bowls engraved by humans. It presents insculpted motifs of small bowls, which in other areas is related to the megalithic phenomenon, at a time that should be dated between the middle/late Neolithic and the Chalcolithic, a period in which this type of graphic representations on stone are frequent.

Used to make ice and store it. Construction from the 17th-18th centuries. In the southern part, there are two brick arches, which are assumed to have been the supports for the ramp that connected the well with a pond located further up. From this pond, when the water froze, blocks of ice were sent down to the well. Inside the well, layers of ice and straw were created to preserve it until summer, the time of year when it was commercialized.

A small castle in ruins dated back in 1114. Initially a fortified structure, became linked to the Sant Vicenç de Montalt castle in the 11th century. By 1114, it fell under the jurisdiction of the Benedictine monastery of Sant Pere de Casserres. The Dosrius family, holding lands that included Canyamars, was vassal to this castle, later passing to the Cartellà family in 1277. In 1453, the Cartellàs bought full dominion over the castle and the Dosrius barony from Casserres. They took the titles of barons of Dosrius and Canyamars. Over time, they merged with the Sentmenat family, retaining control until the old regime's end. In 1690, King Charles II of Spain created the Marquesat de Castelldosrius, awarded to Manuel de Sentmenat Oms de Santa Pau, more than a century after the Sant Pere de Casserres community ceased to exist.

Palafolls Castle has a history dating back to 1035 when it formed the Barony of Palafolls, encompassing Palafolls, Malgrat, Santa Susanna, and part of Blanes. In 1113, Ramon Berenguer granted the major lordship to the Viscounts of Girona, later known as the Cabrera family. However, the lesser sovereignty remained with Palafolls. The Palafolls family acquired the County of Ariza. In the 14th century, a conflict led to Guillem de Palafolls becoming a royal arms advisor. He eventually sold the castle to King Peter for the Castle of Ariza. Subsequently, the castle passed to the Cabrera family. In the 16th century, it underwent renovations to reinforce coastal defenses against pirates. By the 18th century, it fell into disuse and decay. It changed ownership several times until becoming state property in 1880. Today, the "Friends of Palafolls Castle" organization works to preserve it, with architect Joan Bassegoda i Nonell restoring its church in 1971.

Starting from Sant Celoni there are a road and paths to Olzinelles Valley. It is located to the south of the municipal area of Sant Celoni. Olzinelles is connected to it via the local road BV-5112 and to Vallgorguina through a forest track. At the center of this dispersed settlement, you'll find the Church of Sant Esteve d'Olzinelles, which was documented as early as 1083, although it underwent renovations in the 16th century. The place was mentioned as Vallis Ollofredis in 1179, in 1331 as Castrum Eulofredii or Vallis de Ulzinellis, and in other texts of that time as Oltzinelles, Olzinelles, Ulzinelles, or Otzinelles. The 1360 census recorded nine households in the so-called parish of Aulineles. In 1421, the parish of Olzinelles incorporated that of Vilardell, another dispersed settlement within the present-day municipality of Sant Celoni. The 1553 census already contained the name "parish of Sant Esteve d'Alzinelles."

This hamlet has a long history. The first records of the Church of Santa Eulàlia d'Hortsavinyà date back to the year 1080. Notable on the esplanade are the beautiful Church of Sant Llop, the Church of Santa Eulàlia d'Hortsavinyà, the hermitage of l'Erola, and Sant Miquel de Vallmanya. You can also admire the giant holm oaks of Can Portell (which was damaged by lightning in 2009) and the oak tree of Santa Maria (which fell in 2010). The latter was cataloged by the Generalitat as one of the most spectacular trees in Catalonia; it took 4 people to hug it, but it fell on January 10, 2010, due to heavy snowfall, and now only its fallen remains can be visited. You can reach Hortsavinyà from Pineda de Mar by walking along Quatre Camins or by taking the Camí de les Costes, following the river upstream. Both routes are beautiful and pass through holm oak forests, pine groves, and magnificent chestnut forests.

The Turó Gros or Telefonista Hill is a 766-meter mountain located in the municipality of Sant Celoni, in the Vallès Oriental region. At the top we can find a geodesic vertex. It is one of the 100 emblematic peaks of Catalonia. In 2014 the Department of the Interior decided to close the watchtower located on the hill. The top is in the middle of a forest, so no views from the top.

Visit the mountains above Mataró and enjoy a typical Mediterranean forest.
