Easter is one of the best times to discover the Camprodon Valley, especially when spring begins to fill the landscapes with colour and life. Whether you’re planning a romantic trip, a family break or a getaway with friends, Hotel Calitxó in Molló is the perfect base for exploring the beauty of the Catalan Pyrenees. Here are some plans for all tastes – and why staying at our hotel will make the experience even better!
Spring hikes through blooming forests
Spring is the ideal season for hiking in the Camprodon Valley, with flower-filled trails and awakening forests. Some recommended routes include:
- The Seven Waterfalls Trail, a scenic walk with magical waterfalls and hidden spots.
- The hike to Sant Patllari Cross, perfect for panoramic views.
- Sant Antoni Hermitage, over 1,300 metres high with breathtaking views of the valley
You can also explore the trails in the Natural Park of the Headwaters of the Ter and Freser, a great spot to observe local wildlife and enjoy fresh mountain air.
Charming villages and cultural heritage
During your stay, don’t miss visiting the lovely villages near Molló:
- Camprodon, known for its medieval bridge and historic streets.
- Beget, one of the most beautiful villages in Catalonia, with its Romanesque church of Sant Cristòfol.
- Prats-de-Mollo-la-Preste, a fortified medieval village with cobbled streets, the Church of Saints Justa and Rufina, and the 17th-century Fort Lagarde – reached via a covered walkway and offering panoramic views over the Vallespir valley.
If you’re interested in recent history, you can also follow the “Retirada” route or hike parts of the GR11 trans-Pyrenean trail.
Family-friendly activities: nature, animals and fun
If you’re travelling with kids, a visit to Molló Parc is a must. This nature park allows you to see Pyrenean animals in their natural habitat. Spring is the best time to see them active after winter.
You can also go mountain biking, horseback riding or visit Vallter 2000 for a high-altitude hiking experience.
