Alt Empordà has always been characterised as a frontier territory thanks to its location in the north of the Costa Brava, forming the border with France.

There are so many aspects that make it a worthwhile place to visit.
You’ll discover a wide variety of protected landscapes: the Aiguamolls de l’Empordà Natural Park, the Cap de Creus Natural Park, the Albera Natural Area and the Bassegoda area.
