Depending on your departure, which can be from Cardedeu or from a site closer to the town, you may have the chance to admire the Montseny Natural Park. If you are on holiday in Spain and have already tried the adventure from Barcelona, we recommend the Canary Islands and its Teide National Park for a different kind of flight.
