Hiking
From this hill, which is a little further south and which also enjoys a spectacular view, the high slope of its solana, where the Creueta del Coll park is located, stands out. It is not a natural slope but corresponds to the remains of a quarry, which remained in operation until the first half of the last century. This steep slope makes access to the summit particularly difficult due to its southern entrance, while it is much more accessible on the side facing Collserola.

Hiking
Above all the stone walls, today colonized by Mediterranean shrubs, among which the broom stands out, there is a wooden railing that delimits the space of the park and separates it from the forest slope or urban forest of the Coll hill, facing towards in the Collserola mountain range. A small path allows you to go around the upper part of the quarry. It can be accessed from the Manlleu passage. On the way back, if we prefer to go down this side of the hill, we will reach the Taxonera neighborhood, now in the Horta-Guinardó district.
