Underpass under the Via Rodalies de Vic on a forest track that connects Montcada and Reixac with La Llagosta and Santa Perpètua, as well as crossing the AP7 further on to reach Polinyà.

Stone crossing on the Camí del Ripoll to cross the Ripoll river from one side to the other. It is an excellent alternative to the Castellar Highway. From Sant Feliu del Racó towards Castellar del Vallès it can be done on a bicycle, as the path descends. In the opposite direction too, but it can be complicated and hard because there are technical steps of medium difficulty.
