El Montgròs, Mountain summit in Sant Pere de Ribes and Canyelles, Spain

El Montgròs rises 357 meters above sea level, featuring limestone and dolostone formations that shape its distinct geological profile in the Garraf region.

The mountain terrain experienced substantial changes after a forest fire in May 1997, which affected large sections of the vegetation on the Sant Pere de Ribes slope.

Local residents maintain a tradition of raising the Catalan flag on September 11 and placing a nativity scene near Christmas time at the mountain peak.

The hiking route to El Montgròs extends 10.6 kilometers with a 350-meter elevation gain, beginning from the Ribes sports area along the GR 92.4 path.

Communication antennas at the summit transmit radio and television signals across the Penedès region, making it a central broadcasting point.
