Do Volcanoes excite you? Our next trip takes you to the mysterious land of 40 volcanoes covered by beech forests getting into their spring costumes. You will also have the chance to admire a charming medieval village that hangs on the edge of a basalt cliff.
We will start our volcano adventure with a hike across the Fageda d’en Jordá – a unique forest growing upon a lava flow. From this mesmerizing beech forest our path will lead us to the volcanic area. The first extinct volcano we will see here is called Santa Margarida with a small Romanesque church standing within its wide circular crater. Afterward we will keep hiking through the horseshoe-shaped Croscat volcano. The Croscat is the highest volcanic cove in the Iberian Peninsula which had its last eruption more than 11,000 years ago.
After leaving the volcanic field of La Garrotxa we will travel to our next destination: Castellfollit de la Roca. This little medieval village is one of the most photographed and painted places of Catalonia. The basalt cliff on which the village sits is over 50 m high and was formed by the erosive action of the Fluvià and Toronell rivers. The old town of Castellfolit de la Roca has medieval characteristics and most of the houses here are built of volcanic stone.
If you want to spend a day in this very special volcanic area surrounded by colorful nature, and you also like the medieval impression, you definitely need to join this trip!
