Olot, known as "the city of volcanoes", is the capital of the Garrotxa region, in the province of Girona, in Catalonia. It is known for its natural landscapes and its location within the Garrotxa Volcanic Zone Natural Park. In its territory there are four volcanoes, two of which can be visited: Montsacopa and Montolivet. It also has valuable wetlands and the Croscat volcano in its surroundings. La Fageda d'en Jordá, a vast beech forest, is also a popular tourist attraction for walks, bike rides, horseback or carriage rides.

Olot has an outstanding cultural heritage, including modernist-style monuments and also the Renaissance-style cloister of El Carme.

The local gastronomy, known as "volcanic cuisine", is another tourist attraction in Olot. Olot potatoes are a famous recipe in the region. In addition, the city is home to the oldest bullring in Catalonia and the second oldest in Spain, built in 1859.

Lovely small town up in the mountains above Girona. This is where the Ruta del Carrilet starts

A picturesque town in the mountains north of Girona and great of an overnight stop with plenty of shops to restock, a few bike shops for repairs and lots of great restaurants to refuel in.
