La Morella, Mountain summit in Begues, Spain.
La Morella rises to 593 meters above sea level as part of the Garraf Massif within the Catalan Coastal Range, featuring karstic limestone formations and Mediterranean vegetation typical of northeastern Spain's coastal mountains.
La Morella has served as a strategic viewpoint and navigation reference point for centuries, with its prominence making it a key landmark in regional maps and land use planning throughout Catalonia's historical development.
The mountain lends its name to the 'Morella wind,' a notable easterly breeze that influences local weather patterns and is referenced in Catalan meteorological traditions and regional folklore of the Barcelona area.
Hikers can access La Morella via well-marked trails starting from Castelldefels or Begues, with the moderate difficulty ascent best undertaken during spring and autumn months when weather conditions are most favorable.
La Morella is officially recognized as part of the Seznam 100 vrhov FEEC, a prestigious list of significant peaks, and serves as the second highest point in the entire Garraf Massif.
