Very pleasant and diverse walk through leafy areas and open areas

Dear Banderas, after discussing with you the frustrated visit to the Castle last Wednesday, I decided to return following your recommendation but you won't believe it, it was also closed today, Monday, so for now I will have to content myself with your photographs. Thank you

Also known as the Clasquerí Castle, it is located on the right bank of the Ripoll on a hill surrounded everywhere by ravines that make it difficult to access. With a trapezoidal plan, probably because of the ravine that is in the south-west part it must have forced it, it has a central courtyard. In this there is a well and the stairs that give access to the first floor, and it is closed by two added wings and by an exempted tower in the corner. It consists of a ground floor and two floors. The first documentary reference is from 912 in a donation act. But what is mentioned is the castrum kastellare, and we do not know if it refers to the castle itself, or to the territorial unit that would end up being Castellar. In the 11th and 12th centuries, the castle under the count's power was owned by the Montcada family. However, this family sells the castle, to recover it again a century later. In 1310 Gastó de Montcada ceded the castle to Pere de Clasquerí, and finally his great-grandson, Guerau de Clasquerí, bought it. From the 15th century, the Clasquerí became the territorial and jurisdictional lords of the lands, properties, farms and houses belonging to the castle. The current owner, Carles Fontcuberta, is a descendant of the Clasquerí family and the families that have been related to them: the Meca in the 16th-17th centuries and the Sentmenat in the 17th-19th centuries. The current appearance of the castle preserves very few remains of its early medieval origin. It is, for example, the entrance arch of half a point. The appearance of the castle changed thanks to the reforms made by Guerau de Clasquerí in 1335. And also by those made at the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th. Over time the state of the castle deteriorated, despite the fact that since 1994 consolidation and restoration works were carried out throughout the building. One of the essential elements of the castle, as well as the most beautiful, is the chapel of Santa Bárbara, in Gothic style and with a single nave, where masses and ceremonies were held by the noble family, while they lived in the castle .

Gallifa Castle is a small fortification dating from the 10th century. Today only remains of the walls and other buildings of the castle remain, including part of a tower. The Romanesque chapel, on the other hand, was restored in the 20th century.

The highest peak in the natural park. Here is the Romanesque monastery of Sant Llorenç del Munt (10th century). There is also a very popular restaurant where you can enjoy one of the most spectacular views over much of Catalonia, thanks to the 1,104 m height.
