See Castellfollit de la Roca village on basalt cliff
Walk to Santa Margarida hermitage inside volcanic crater
Garrotxa Tour Unveils Medieval Towns, Volcanic Landscapes, and Catalonia’s Largest Lake
A full-day guided excursion from Girona is offering travelers a journey through the diverse landscapes and historic settlements of the Garrotxa region, where medieval heritage, volcanic terrain, and natural beauty converge.
The experience begins in Besalú, a remarkably preserved medieval town dominated by its iconic Romanesque bridge over the Fluvià River. The bridge, with its fortified tower and distinctive arches, serves as a gateway into a historic center where cobbled streets reveal traces of the town’s significant Jewish heritage, including one of Europe’s most notable medieval mikveh baths.
The route continues to Castellfollit de la Roca, a striking village dramatically perched on a basalt cliff between two river valleys. Its unique location offers one of the most photographed panoramic viewpoints in Catalonia, showcasing the geological forces that shaped the region.
Travelers then enter the volcanic zone of the Garrotxa Volcanic Zone Natural Park, where a short walk leads to the hermitage of Santa Margarida volcano, uniquely located within an extinct volcanic crater. The journey continues to Santa Pau, a medieval fortified village known for its stone architecture and traditional local cuisine.
