Sant Miquel Castle, Girona

Sant Miquel Castle is one of the best promenades you can do from the center of Girona, and is completed in half day. It is between this city center and the neighboring municipality of Celrà, toward the beautiful Sant Daniel Valley, so the forest path crosses a natural environment of great value. This fifteenth-century castle which lies about 425 meters above the mountain Puig Castellar, offers also an excellent panoramic view over the city of Girona, Pyrenees, mountains and even Montgrí Medes Islands on clear days.
