Walking
/ REAL COSTA BRAVA / COSTA BRAVA-SALVADOR DALI / VOLCANIC LAND / MEDIAEVAL GARROTXA / DREAM-LIKE PANORAMA AROUND OIX VILLAGE
Route description
This is a quite tough route which will take us into the region known as ´La Garrotxa´, a very special natural park that protects an area of volcanoes located in between the high Pyrenees and the coastal plains. Along a network of paths, we will see a variety of volcanoes and landscapes in a rich natural context. We will be accompanied by acredited guides from the natural park.

The region is culturally and architecturally very rich and, for example, in Olot, the region´s capital, we will discover buildings belonging to Modernism styles. We will also visit the enchanting little village of Santa Pau with its castle and old walls, where time seems to have stopped. Elsewhere in the region, a well-preserved Roman road can be walked and there are numerous Romanesque churches linked by a great diversity of routes and trails passing through many picturesque areas. The village of Hostalets is cataloged as a historical-artistic monument, while from the Xenacs viewpoint we will have a wonderful panoramic vision of the whole natural park. In Olot we will also visit the Museum of the Volcanoes, and learn about the history of the region´s volcanic activity.
