Serra de Busa

A natural fortress open to the Pyrenees

There are few places in Catalonia like the Serra de Busa offering such catalog of thematic diversity and so much quality to invite you to visit them: landscape, geology, natural environment, history, archeology, ethnology.

The Pre-Pyrenees views from its summit are unique. A landscape little appreciated by the people who were confined in the terrible natural prison of Capolatell, a small part of the cliff separated by a deep slit, today crossed by a metal bridge, but which years ago an impossible threshold to cross for the people imprisoned there.

Busa is a plateau 4 km long and 2 km wide, surrounded by rocky walls where vultures nest. Only accessible by car on a single unpaved road, the rest of the trails offer suggestive excursions like this one.
