ROUTE 1: Sea route |
We're going to l'Escala (N-II road during 11 km. direction Figueres/France. Near Báscara we'll take road GI-623 direction L'Escala). In this town we'll enjoy the Catalan cooking and the quality of the Costa Brava beaches.
A very few kilometres from here we'll visit the town of Empuries, where the beds of the greek colony Emporion have been preserved (it means "market" in greek and date from year 600 a.c.) and also the rests of the roman city Emporiae.
The enclosure, of 40 hectares, is the most visited archaelogical bed in Catalunya. |

ROUTE 2: Volcano route |
In this route we are going to the medieval village of Besalu (through road C-66), romanesque town that combines elements of earldom tradition with details from the Jewish community
that once lived there. The bridge is worthy of interest. Next we are going to Castellfollit de la Roca (through road N-260), a village constructed on rocky cliffs. The next stop is Olot and Fageda d'en Jordà, in Santa Pau (following road N-260), were we'll find the well known Parque Natural Zona Volcánica de la Garrotxa, the biggest volcano chain of Europe.
