Park in one of the car parks. They are free outside the high season! 😉
The route is very poorly marked, but if you follow this hike, there should be no problem.
(2) After an hour and a half, you will find Bertran Bridge
Then head towards Puig del Colomer and Castel del Serrat, and then it will be time to head back.
Enjoy your hike!
A magnificent hike in the Catalan hinterland, an hour from Rosas. The path is poorly marked, but it's a fairly easy and very enjoyable hike. The gorges and river are superb. Enjoy!

Other walks in the area
Loop between Montagut and Pont del Llierca, via Sant Eudald and Planseslloses
A circular route around the village of Montagut, where the first foothills of the Alta Garrotxa already offer some examples of Romanesque architecture. From the centre of Montagut, climb up to the church of Sant Eudald de Jou and then on to the oratory of Planselloses. You then descend towards the Pont del Llierca (where you can swim), passing under the Puig de l'Espigoler and Puig Sacreu, before returning to Montagut along the river.
Circular lake tour and Mirador de la Tortuga from Darius
A fairly easy walk with varied scenery. There are no signposts on the paths, but the routes are fairly straightforward, so there’s little chance of getting lost. The walk starts in Darnius, with the first section through woodland, a stop at an11th-century chapel (unfortunately closed to the public), a walk along the lake, then back towards Darnius, with the option of climbing up to the Mirador de la Tortuga (a 15-minute ‘detour’) which offers a stunning panoramic view of the lake and the surrounding mountains.
Pilon de Belmaig from Pujol del Mig
An easier way to climb this pleasant summit in Vallespir is from Arles-sur-Tech.
(!) Access to the start of the hike is impossible by car: the road has been closed since 9 November 2024. Situation unchanged on 9 November 2025.
Las Illas in Amélie-les-Bains
Third day of this crossing of the Albères.This is the greenest part of the route as it is mainly through forest.You will pass by the highest point of Roc de France (Roca de Frausa) with a magnificent panorama over a large part of the Eastern Pyrenees and Canigou (Canigó).
