This guide to Torrella is organised around four references: historic centre and urban layout, landscape of the Cànyoles valley, agricultural and water heritage and historic routes through La Costera. Together they explain the town and its relationship with La Costera. The itinerary supports both a compact and a slower version without adding generic stops that do not belong to the municipality. Combining the visit with nearby towns is worthwhile only when distances and opening conditions allow it.
