An area of 1,784 hectares that takes in territory of the municipalities of El Pont d’Armentera, Querol and Santa Perpètua de Gaià. Included in the Areas of Natural Interest in Catalonia Plan for its wildlife, it is home to a large number of species common to the Mediterranean garrigue scrublands and rocky areas. As far as flora is concerned, this is a transitional area between the pre-littoral holm-oak and laurestine vegetation and the central Catalan oak wood basins. The scarce human presence means that species such as the rabbit and the partridge abound, together with their corresponding predators.
