📍 Prats-de-Mollo-la-Preste
Start your journey in Prats-de-Mollo-la-Preste, a fortified village with authentic charm, where Catalan influence can be felt in every street. Climb up to Fort Lagarde, a 17th-century citadel perched on the heights, built by Vauban to monitor the French-Spanish border. The access is through an impressive underground passage, and once at the top, the view over the Tech Valley and the first foothills of Canigou is breathtaking.
After this historical immersion, take the time to explore the village and taste local specialties in an inn (Vallespir charcuterie, boles de picolat…).
