Collbaix Summit
Highlight • Summit
Collbaix is a 543 meter peak, located in Sant Joan de Vilatorrada. It is the highest in the district of Manresa, to the west of Pla de Bages, which has an excellent observation point. It is listed as a large park by the Planning Plan of Manresa.
The mountain is located between the streams of Rajadell and Fonollosa. The south side belongs to Manresa, the east to Sant Joan de Vilatorrada, where the town's expansion area is located. Rajadell has the area of Punta Sabata and Fonollosa with most of the summit, the west and the obac slope.
Collbaix originated from the erosion of the surrounding land. A resistant layer of conglomerates protects the flat top from erosion, forming a plateau. The summit is made up of large blocks of stone separated from each other.
At the top we can find a geodesic vertex (reference 280109001)
A metal table with an engraved map of the region.
This peak is included in the list of the 100 peaks of the FEEC.

Cal Jepot wine vat
Highlight • Monument
The tubs are constructions that have very similar characteristics. Its exterior plan can be quadrangular or circular, but the interior structure is basically the same. The lower part of it is made with stone and mortar. The interior is usually circular, and is covered with varnished ceramic pieces. Then, as an extension of the tub, some dry stone walls were built that gave its square or circular outer structure, where an opening was built. The roof is usually formed by a conical vault of dry stone covered with earth to make it waterproof. The vat usually has an upper access from where the must was poured once pressed, and at the bottom were the spouts through which it was emptied. Sometimes they have an attached hut that closes the access to the tub from the bottom and can also be used to store tools. In the area of Sant Joan de Vilatorrada and Sant Martí de Torruella some tubs are preserved as isolated architectural elements, in some cases it is simply the tub without any other element in the middle of a field. On other occasions it is a group of tubs (three or four) to which a hut has been added at the foot of each tub.
