From the viewpoint you can see part of the Barcelona plain, the Llobregat delta and the mountains that surround it. A few years ago, when the restoration of the place was done, some specimens of cypress trees were added to the three already existing and that give the name to the viewpoint.

An ideal starting point, to make the well-known route from Plaça Mireia to Pla dels Maduixers, in about 4 hours you can make the round trip, accompanied at all times, by the best views of Barcelona, if you do it at sunset and wait At nightfall, the spectacle of seeing the city illuminated from that height is incredible.
