The discovery of Salt de Gualba and the unexpected detour

Description
Taking advantage of a morning in Gualba, the goal was to hike up to Salt de Gualba, an impressive waterfall with about a 100-meter drop in three successive sections. The ascent followed a track up to the waterfall's viewpoint, from where I enjoyed the views. Although I wanted to get closer, I found a stone wall that I decided not to jump over.
From the viewpoint, the path led me to the stream, where I discovered more waterfalls and hidden springs, such as the Font del Senglar and the Font dels Ocells. The route directed me towards a campsite, but upon being informed that crossing required payment, I had to replan the route. I opted for a detour, passing by the significant Monolith of the Rosa d'Abril, to return to the original track and retrace my steps.
It may not have been the smoothest route due to this detour, and better planning will be needed for the next time. Even so, the morning ended with a well-deserved beer in the village!.
