Old mill on the banks of the Ripoll River that served the D'en Torrella factory. It is an access point to the Ripoll River path between Castellar and Montcada, near Sabadell on the Caldes road.

Source located on a forest path that follows the GR97 that allows you to go from Togores to Can Moragues. It is also the starting point of the Torrent de Colobrers path, not for cycling, which has formed a small gorge of great beauty and very familiar, which reaches the Ripoll river, and the holed rock is found. At the end of the lane there is a restaurant.
