Rupit (Medieval village)

Rupit is a medieval town nestled in a spectacular natural environment. The stone houses, narrow streets and the bridges of the town make Rupit a perfect place to spend a midday, walking, trying local products, etc. It's like travelling back in time four or five centuries into the past. Rupit is also the start of many hiking trails.

Sal de Sallent (Hiking)

Salt de Sallent is the longest waterfall in of Catalonia with a vertical drop of almost 100 meters if we add up all its sections. The hike starts from Rupit. It is about 6 kilometres, 3 out and 3 back for an estimated time of 1h30. A very good option to complete the day after having visited and eaten in town.
