Sanctuary of Our Lady of Fontcalda

Highlight • Religious Site

The Sanctuary of the Mare de Déu de la Fontcalda dates from the 14th century, although the current building is from 1753. It is neoclassical in style, with a single nave with a barrel vault and a small transept with an octagonal dome.

This place has been known since the 14th century, where an image of the Mare de Déu de la Fontcalda was venerated. La Font Calda gets its name from the hot springs that gush out at the foot of the sanctuary. The water comes out at 25º and in addition to the sanctuary, buildings were built to house people who came to become priests or simply to spend the weekend or vacation.

Fontcalda

Highlight • Natural Monument

Fontcalda, a natural thermal basin inserted in a wonderful gorge. To get there you have to get off the track and go down a steep and short descent. The water temperature is 22 degrees, therefore good for all seasons. It is highly recommended to bring a bathing suit: resisting those waters is difficult.

View of Agulla de Bot

Highlight • Viewpoint

This mountain towers above the old Prat de Comte train station. With its height of 518 metres above sea level, it is an eye-catcher directly in front of the 750-metre-long railway tunnel that passes under the mountain to the right below.

March 23, 2026,🇪🇸 Fontcalda
This afternoon, a fantastic hike to el Canalettes Rauschen and the wonderful gorge.
A sheepdog approaches me - hesitant at first.
I make myself small by squatting, then he trusts me, comes up to me, sniffs me, and we are friends.
The beech flowers in this secluded mountain world fascinate me - truly Mediterranean.
Very varied up to the water …
