Route of the Castles on the Costa Brava

Prepare yourself for a spectacular journey into the past. At times when the lands of Girona were the border between the Arab and Christian world. In time of kings, counts and knights. You will see immense castles that keep intact all their medieval splendor, still protected by the defensive walls. Others in ruins, hidden discreetly among the vegetation. But they are all testimony to a part of our history.

Route's villages
Travel through two attractive routes: the first takes us to the castles of Castell d'Aro, Calonge, Palamós, La Bisbal and Torroella de Montgrí and medieval towns such as Pals, Peratallada, Palau-sator, Cruïlles and Monells.
The second tour combines the imposing natural beauty of the Montseny and Guilleries massifs with the majesty of castles such as that of Hostalric, that of Montsoriu in Arbúcies, that of Solterra in Sant Hilari Sacalm and that of Anglés.
