De Savella de l'Abadiat al Fonoll

  This itinerary revolves around a few places of stillness and solitude, typical of rural counties in the center of Catalonia, and reaches Fonoll, which was abandoned and is now used as a naturist area. To access the starting point of the route from Montblanc takes the C-241 up to Sarral where followed to the T-233. Later must turn right to the T-222 to Forès, population that can be visited due to its altitude and location on top of the mountain. From Forès to follow the road that leads to Conesa until, after 2.3 km, is left a track marked with white and red GR 7.1: here we park vehicle.
