Turó de Céllecs, Mountain summit in Catalonia, Spain.
Turó de Céllecs is a mountain summit reaching 536 meters in elevation between Òrrius and Vilanova del Vallès in the Catalan coastal range. The mountain displays granite and sandstone formations that shape its structure and distinguish it from surrounding ridges.
The summit contains archaeological remains from an ancient Iberian settlement that show early human presence in the region. These findings indicate the area has been inhabited since classical times.
The summit takes its name from the local Catalan landscape and is recognized among hikers who pass through the region. Many visit it as part of their journey through the nearby ridge system, where traditional paths link the mountains together.
Multiple marked trails lead to the summit, with the PR-C 36 starting from Roca del Vallès and the GR-92 from Coll de Sant Bartomeu offering established routes. Both paths are clearly signed and accessible for hikers of different abilities.
This summit forms part of a trio with Turó de Mataró and Turó Rodó, creating a natural corridor within the protected Parc de la Serralada Litoral. This ridge system links several conservation areas and is a favorite destination for those exploring the protected landscape.
