Puig d'Agulles, Mountain summit in Serra d'Ordal, Spain.
Puig d'Agulles is a mountain summit in the Serra d'Ordal range, situated where Cervelló, Begas, and Vallirana municipalities meet. A weather station occupies the peak, making it an active scientific observation point rather than a purely natural landmark.
The peak has long served as a natural boundary marker between different areas in Barcelona province. Its elevated position made it a practical reference point for regional administrative divisions.
The summit functions as a central point for meteorological research, with a weather station managed by Dr. Turraca studying precipitation patterns near coastal areas.
The summit is accessible by hiking routes starting from nearby towns like Corbera de Llobregat and Gélida. Paths connect through the Safari road area, making it reachable for visitors with moderate fitness levels.
A radar station at the peak collects real-time weather data and supports research into precipitation patterns near coastal areas. This equipment transforms the location into an example of how natural landscapes are integrated into modern scientific monitoring today.
