エスカルデス-イングランドのおすすめウォーキング＆ハイキングルート

It is a very difficult route, certainly not average. It does indeed start with a well-maintained path, but as soon as you go up the mountain it is not a hiking trail, but a path, where you have to climb and clamber a lot. Near the top you really have to climb with your hands and feet. The road (GPS) is poorly indicated. When it rains it becomes dangerously slippery. We experienced thunder and hail (we left in beautiful weather) which made us underestimate the threatening conditions. We did not finish the route, but descended via the road. This is super far. Think carefully and prepare (eat, drink, jacket) before you start this challenge! In retrospect we are very glad that we did not finish the route! On the road we had a lift from locals who confirmed that this is a very difficult route, with a great risk of changing weather. They indicated that there should be better warnings about this.

It is not a recommended route when there is snow on the road. The road signs are often on the ground where you cannot see them under the snow.

Spectacular video mapping that projects the frescoes that decorated the church onto the walls, exciting.

'The Nobility of Time' 1977 Salvador Dali

Beautiful view over the entire valley once you have mastered the steep climb at the end. Difficult and long descent through rocky and partly steep terrain, the path is not always clearly visible despite navigation via GPS. Some places are secured with ropes.

Be careful, very difficult descent over several hours. Hiking shoes and a head for heights are absolutely necessary!

A comparable motif not only exists as a large sculpture, but Dali (1904 to 1989) had already realized the idea in the small oil painting in 1931: "With the picture "La persistencia de la memoria" (The Persistence of Memory), the surrealist painter Salvador Dali painted a painting in 1931 that would become his most famous. This oil painting is also called "The Elapsed Time" or "The Soft Clocks". only 24.1 by 33 centimeters in size. It shows four dissolving pocket watches arranged in the Catalan landscape in front of the rugged rocks of the Cap de Creus. A fly sits on one clock, which is supposed to symbolize how time flies. Another is eaten by ants, symbolic of transience and decay. In the middle of the picture, a clock melts away on an abstracted face of the artist shown in profile..."
