Sant Ferriol - Castell d'Ultera - Mare de Déu del Castell from Sorède
Hike to discover the restored built heritage of Sant-Ferriol de la Pava and Mare de Déu del Castell and the ruins of Castell d'Ultera.
Do not underestimate this hike on uncomfortable and stony paths. The final ascent to the ruins of Castell d'Ultera from (4) to (7) is difficult and should only be attempted in dry weather. A metal ladder after (5) provides access to the ruins.
The castle of Ultrera and Notre-Dame du Château from the Valley of the Tortoises
A hike starting from La Vallée des Tortues in Sorède, which passes through the suburbs of Sorède and leads to the Sant Ferriol de la Pave Chapel, then up to the heights of the Albères to the ruins of the Château d'Ultrera, before descending slightly to the old Himalaya solar oven and then on to the Hermitage of Notre-Dame du Château, where a break is a must. The return via the Pont de la Resclosa bridge takes you back to the valley and its wildlife park, which is well worth a visit.
