La Garrotxa is in the north of Catalonia, at the high
basin of the river Fluvià, the Muga estuary and the Amer and Llémena
river beds.
In this county you can see two totally
different types of countryside. In a large part of the southern half
there are more than 40 volcanoes and various lava flows, forming a
gentle countryside without dramatic gradients, which is protected by
La Garrotxa Volcanic Zone Natural Park.
From the Fluvià river valley to the county's northern limits, the
landscape changes dramatically, becoming more dramatic and steeper with
an abundance of cliffs and gorges. This is the
Alta Garrotxa, which is a declared area of natural interest (Espai d'Interès Natural).
Enjoy Garrotxa, enjoy Catalonia !!!
