Sanctuary of Our Lady of Fontcalda

Highlight • Religious Site

Sanctuary located next to the Terra Alta Greenway within the area of the Pàndols-Cavalls mountains. The building, built in the 19th century, has a group of baroque-style buildings around it. The name of the sanctuary comes from the mineral-medicinal water source located to the left of the Canaleta river.

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.
