If you drive along the A26 highway from Besalu to Olot, then on the right side of the viaduct there is a breathtaking view of the small town located at the very edge of the high cliff – Castellfollit de la Roca. “Small” is even loudly said. According to official figures, the city is on the list of the smallest settlements in Spain with an area of less than 1 square kilometer. According to this parameter, it is the smallest in our province of Girona, and the second among the smallest in all of Catalonia. The city is not young, the first mentions are dated by the XI century.
Basalt rock, on which Castellfollit is located – of volcanic origin; moreover, in the process of tectonic shifts, it turned over and was squeezed out of the earth’s crust upside down. At the foot of the cliff, two streams converge – Fluvia and Turonell. Knowledgeable people say say that in this place there is a serious intersection of the magnetic field lines of the earth, so the place posesses a tremendous energy. So do not miss your chance to splash in the stream of a mountain river, open the chakras and cleanse karma😊.
We invite you to a small virtual walk around the city with us.
