How to get there

From Barcelona

From the A2 highway, exit at Tàrrega Est (first exit 510 of Tàrrega).

At the first roundabout with the large letters of Tàrrega, take the third exit in the direction of Tarragona. You'll arrive at a roundabout where there is an old tractor, and here you continue straight downhill. You will arrive at a traffic light, follow straight ahead, cross the Avinguda Generalitat and you will immediately find a roundabout with olive trees. Keep driving straight along the main road and cross Ondara River. Just past the bridge, take the first turnoff to the left (Santiago Russinyol Street) and immediately take the dirt road that goes to the left. Follow the wide path on the left for a few minutes and take the first turnoff to the right (it's impossible to go straight here because it's blocked off).

It's a wide path. You will cross the Segarra Garrigues Channel. Just after crossing it, turn left and drive uphill. Follow this path for a few minutes until you see an old house with very tall pine trees. Passing this house, there is a signposted road junction. Turn left. Now, on the right, you can see La Torre del Codina. Follow this road for another 100 m and enter the farm road. You've arrived!
