Just 20 minutes away by car, you can visit the volcanic area par excellence of Spain, the whole area is protected as part of the Natural Park of the Volcanic Zone of La Garrotxa. It is really a must-see, you shouldn’t miss it.

Much closer, there is the region of Pla de l'Estany, with its capital Banyoles, a village that lies on the largest natural lake in Catalonia, l'Estany de Banyoles. Its calm water, its delightful "fishing houses", the pedestrian path around the lake, makes this the perfect place to enjoy the peaceful countryside, to do some bird watching, and to benefit from a walk. It's totally flat, making your walk even more enjoyable.

If you fancy a more cultural visit, just 30 kilometers away lies Figueres with the famous Dalí Theater-Museum. The largest surrealist gallery in the world, occupying the building of the old Municipal Theatre, a 19th-century building that was destroyed at the end of the Civil War and on these ruins, Dalí decided to create his museum.

You shouldn’t miss a walk through the streets of Girona, a beautiful small city but with just as much to offer as the bigger cities. Girona's appeal lies in its medieval architecture, the walled Old Quarter (one of the locations used in filming Game of Thrones) the beautiful streets and squares, and the noucentista buildings of Rafael Masó,

If you fancy a day at the beach, just 40 minutes away, there are some great beaches. You can choose from the many beautiful villages on the Costa Brava. You can also go and marvel at the wonders that the Greeks and Romans have left in Empuries.
