Trail reviews for Agulla Petita
Absolutely stunning views. Most part in the shadows of beautiful mideteranian forest. Some parts could be a bit challenging for those who not built to climb, but it is not too dangerous, just requires cautions. Takes approximately 3 hours with breaks. Highly recommended.
Castell de la Guàrdia - Camí de la Portella - Camí de la Roca Foradada
Superb walk that is easy to do with the family. Last short section, quite steep (to the delight of my little 7-year-old climber).

Conditions: Great!
Can Maçana - Roca Foradada - L'Escorpí - Roca Gran de la Portella
There are some parts of the trail that are private property and you can't exactly go where the trail tells you to go, but it is easy to detour a bit and continue!!!! We also saw mountain goats in the middle of the road and got a little scared, but they don't do anything and move out of the way. I recommend it 100%
