106 - Argentona

Situat en el Parc de la Serralada Litoral, just al seu límit nord, a uns 7,5 km de la costa, recorrent una vall paral·lela a aquesta. La seva longitud total és de 1.412 metres i està dividit en 8 seccions, amb una mitjana de 176 metres per secció, i l'alçada mitjana és de 134 metres. Els comptatges es van iniciar el 2008, mantenint-se ininterrompudament fins a l'actualitat.

El sòl és silícic, dominat pel característic sauló del Maresme, i el recorregut segueix inicialment el marge de la riera per després enfilar-se pel seu vessant nord.
