Hermitage views, rocky access
1 Carrer Emporda, 43717, La Bisbal del Penedès
Been here?
A quiet wild spot at the Hermitage of Santa Cristina has a flat area, good views and a small, neglected playground. Access becomes rocky and uneven near the hermitage, with difficult manoeuvring for vehicles over 7m. There are no services, and recent reports mention strong wind and a theft. Vans can reach it by staying on the normal road rather than following the GPS.

A very quiet and attractive place. The road is fine until the chapel, then becomes rocky and rough. It is manageable, but drivers who dislike manoeuvring or who have vehicles over seven metres may want to avoid it. The ramp to the chapel clearing is quite steep; to descend, turn around a little farther along the track and come back.
It has poor access and is very windy. We couldn't sleep all night.
Be careful. I was robbed. I will not return. There are no services and manoeuvring is difficult.
Excellent view and very peaceful; we saw nobody. The site is level and shaded. The downside is the large number of mosquitoes. We recommend it.
Access is somewhat difficult. Do not follow the GPS; stay on the regular road for as long as possible. It is very quiet and we were not disturbed.
A very good, quiet overnight spot with no traffic. Reaching it requires driving along a track that can be quite stony in places.
Poorly signposted route. Unpaved track all the way; we had to turn around.
Bel endroit, propre et plat. Parfait pour une nuit.
It is easy to reach from the other side via the normal road, so ignore the GPS. Local residents pass by but are all friendly and do not seem bothered by us. However, there were wipes and toilet paper left behind. Please take your rubbish with you; bins are available along the road. Three young people came to smoke without paying attention to us.
Perfect for spending the night with our three children. Flat ground for the van. Peaceful and a beautiful view. Playground.
Fantastic! We stayed two nights and it was extremely quiet. A few locals passed late in the evening, apparently accustomed to vans being here. The place is clean, so please take your rubbish away.
We loved this spot. We saw nobody apart from one car in the morning, probably belonging to a nearby resident. Beautiful scenery, complete calm and a lovely sunset.
