Day 630 - 05/07/2015 : Organyà

We continued driving in a spectacular landscape provided by Pyrenees area. Organyà belongs also to Alt Urgell in Catalonia and it is situated on the right bank of the Segre river below the Trespons gorge, and is served by the C-14 road between Ponts and La Seu d'Urgell.

There are few remarkable hiking routes starting at the town, for instance 'Ruta dels Dòlmens' and 'Ruta de Sant Fe' the known is widely known by being referenced in Homilies d'Organyà, one of the oldest known literary documents (longer than a mere fragment) in the Catalan language.

The original is kept in the National Library of Catalonia, and a reproduction is also displayed in Organyà.

Enjoy your read!
