Sant Magí water pilgrimage in Alt Camp.

The traditional pilgrimage of Sant Magí's water has once again journeyed through Alt Camp, with carriers starting their path from the Brugafanya sanctuary towards Tarragona, stopping in Bràfim to spend the night.

Once again, the carriers of Sant Magí's water from Tarragona have crossed Alt Camp to transport the water from the Brugafanya sanctuary, in the municipality of Pontils, to the provincial capital, following the established tradition.
The participants began their journey on Monday, August 17th, at 7 in the morning, accompanied by gralla and timbal music, with water drawn from one of the wells in the Conca de Barberà region.
During the route, they passed through Querol, where they made their first stop, and continued towards Pont d'Armentera. Subsequently, they paused in Santes Creus to eat and rest before continuing their journey.
In the afternoon, they covered the stretch between Santes Creus and Bràfim, arriving at the latter town around 7 in the evening. There, they left the carts near the Loreto sanctuary, had dinner at the pool bar, and stayed overnight in the town of Bràfim.
The next morning, the participants resumed their journey, passing through Nulles and entering the Tarragonès region. The route continued through l'Argilaga and els Pallaresos, finally reaching Tarragona.
