The second weekend of june, a long one of three days, I walked in the end along La Vall de Nuria and visited El Santuari de Nuria, located at an altitude of almost 2000 meters above the sea level. This sanctuary, like Montserrat Monastery, is one of the most symbolic places in Catalonia.
I thought that the trekking of three hours along this valley would be less tired, but the reward was really worthy. The views of El Santuari de Núria and the good time I spent up there made me forget the rest.
Besides, during this three days we also visited some nice places of La Vall de Camprodon, like Camprodon, Sant Joan de les Abadesses Monastery and Beget. Finally, we spent a fantastic third day visiting the spectacular Fonts del Llobregat and Castellar de N'Hug, a typical village in the Pyrenees.
So, during this three days we visited:
- Day 1: Vall de Camprodon
- Camprodon
- Sant Joan de les Abadesses
- Beget
I had already spent some days in La Vall de Camprodon in 2008. That time I couldn't visit all the interesting places in Camprodon, although I could enter the symbolic Santa Maria de Ripoll Monastery and visit some lovely villages like Setcases.
Camprodon
Walking along Sant Roc Street we went from the Pont Nou to Valencia Street, the most lively street in Camprodon
Sant Joan de les Abadesses
Overview of Sant Joan de les Abadesses Monastery, where you can see the gothic cloister and the bell tower of the romanesque church
As usual, the cloister of Sant Joan de les Abadesses monastery is a really quiet and noiseless place
Beget
Sant Cristòfol de Beget is a really nice romanesque church, as beautiful as the ones of La Vall de Boí
Vall de Núria
This stone bridge over the Nuria river was a perfect place to take some pictures of the lovely environment of La Vall de Núria

This is the reward of a trekking of more than three hours along La Vall de Núria: a lovely view of El Santuari de Núria and the lake in front of it
