Introduction
In front of us, we can observe an orange-red color rocky formation with a "Senyera" (Catalan Flag) and a cross. This is the Granòfir de Ribes. |
Granophyte is a rock that would be halfway between a granite and a volcanic rock. This is due to the fact that in these rocks correspond to an old chimney of a volcano from the superior Ordovician period. |
The vegetation that grows on the granophyte's ground likes strongly acidic the lands, and it is due to this fact that the heather is abundant. |
Ribes de Freses granophyte is the largest and best known in Catalonia. |
