Parc de Foix (Park)


El Foix Park is the most outstanding wetland area of L´Alt Penedès and El Garraf thanks to the river Foix, which starts inside L´Alt Penedès and after running through the area from north to south flows into Cubelles. The central element of the park is the swamp, inaugurated in 1928, at the foot of the town of Castellet, located on a hill crowned by a photogenic castle. In this protected area it is interesting to observe the white pine groves, the bank forest, with ash trees, poplars and alders, and the holm oak wood like that which protects the fountain of Horta. El Foix Park is a meeting point for many birds: more than 143 species have been catalogued.
