The best MTB trails around La Llacuna

Agustí Torelló Mata was born in Sant Sadurní d’Anoia in 1935, the son of tailors and musicians. He began working at the age of 14 and at 18 he opened the town’s first wine analysis laboratory. In 1960 he married Carmen Sibill Cardús, beginning a life that would always revolve around cava and which would consolidate him as one of the best winemakers in the country. A man devoted to cava, in 1955 he produced his first 500 bottles, while for years he advised and directed important companies in the sector. In 1978 he produced his masterpiece: KRIPTA, recognised as one of the world’s great sparkling wines. With an annual production of 500,000 bottles of cava and 150,000 bottles of wine, it is present in more than 30 countries. Under the current management of their 2 children: Àlex - oenologist, technical director of oenology and viticulture and Gemma, lawyer and company administrator, they are a benchmark in family businesses in the sector. Today, 45 years later, with the alliance of the 3 generations incorporated into the winery, AGUSTÍ TORELLÓ MATA closes the circle of its own history and presents CELLER KRIPTA as the new corporate image and of all its cavas. "Born with the honesty of the humble, we project ourselves to the world with the seal of a family with a cava soul"

On clear days, spectacular views of the Penedès.

A magical place with wonderful views of the entire Penedés region and the coast, with the blue of the sea in the background. In my opinion, sunny winter days are the best to visit. You can get here by two alternative routes, both very beautiful and quiet: from Guardiola de Font-Rubí and from Sant Martí Sarroca.

Documented for the first time in 962, it was listed as a monastic house dependent on the Ripoll monastery and since the 12th century it had housed a community of Benedictines. Practically nothing remains of the primitive Romanesque church, since in 1541 a mob of Frenchmen burned down the town, leaving the monastic house and the church collapsed. The church was rebuilt in 1567, becoming the property of the Barcelona Cathedral. In the following years he carried out various renovations, including the addition of an altarpiece by the Milanese painter Joan Baptista Toscano and various images by the Catalan baroque artist Agustí Pujol. In successive centuries the church was expanded and in the 1950s, after the damage suffered during the civil war, the sgraffito exterior that can be seen today was painted.

Les Deus is a natural site of Sant Quintí de Medionai is a space where there are 23 sources of water in a beautiful area to take a break.

Beautiful castle that is located above the path that historically connected Sant Joan de Mediona and Sant Quintí, on a cliff and that offers views of the surrounding mountains. You have to take the path that goes up to you directly.

A natural area where you can enjoy lakes, pools, caves and waterfalls. Les Deus are a series of 23 fountains in a row - the water comes from a main source of the Carme Capellades aquifer. In high season, people take advantage of the lakes as a bathing area. On the highest part there is a restaurant and a bar with views and below there is a picnic area. There is also an adventure park where there is via ferrata etc.

Ruins of an Elizabethan barracks, occupied by the Carlists. Only a section of wall and a tower remain. The interior has been converted into a cemetery. It is interesting from a historical point of view.
