Santa Coloma de Farners, capital of the comarca at the heart of the Selva lowlands, is replete with country paths, fine springs (such as Sant Salvador) and reputed spas (such as Termes Orion).
The Castle of Farners (11th century), the Romanesque and Baroque shrine and the market held every Monday in the porticoed square complete the visit.
In autumn, the Ratafia Fair is held, which celebrates this typically Catalan sweet liqueur made with medicinal herbs and a tradition steeped in wisdom.
Near Santa Coloma is an interesting route taking in Romanesque monasteries (Sant Pere Cercada, Sant Andreu de Castanyet and Sant Miquel de Cladells) and the towns of Sant Hilari Sacalm (with medicinal springs), Osor (with great chestnut woods), Anglès (with an interesting old quarter) and Amer (with a large porticoed square).
