Tips from locals
A climb to this castle on top of a mountain with stunning views. Not easy, 1 H climbing up, 1,5 H going down. Good shoes required.
Montgrí Castle is a military fortification declared a cultural asset of national interest. It was built between 1294 and 1301 by King Jaume II, at the top of the Montgrí massif. The climb is a walk of (about) an hour and a half. From the castle there are the best views of the whole Empordà and the Costa Brava.
The climb up to this old castle is worth it for the view and to see a traditional castle.
About a 40min walk up the hill from Torroella de Montgrí to the Castle on the top of the mountain, with amazing views on a clear day
