Rupit and Collsacabra nature reserve

Rupit, Spain

Alan Nicol

Embark on an enlightening journey through Catalonia's rich history and picturesque landscapes by visiting one of Spain's most enchanting rural villages during a concise yet enriching day trip.



Travel through time to explore a region where ancient structures, cobblestone streets, and rugged cliffs narrate countless tales. Nestled within Catalonia’s natural splendor and rich historical tapestry, this area offers a glimpse into Spain’s past, with its charming medieval villages harmoniously blending with awe-inspiring landscapes.

Embark on a journey north from Barcelona, aiming towards the picturesque village of Rupit. As soon as you step foot there, you’re enveloped in an atmosphere steeped in the past, surrounded by buildings dating back to the eleventh century.

Upon exploring Rupit’s storied past, we shall traverse the winding valley, gradually stepping away from the medieval setting and ascending higher up the mountain. Our eyes will soon fix upon the majestic cliff formations, verdant vegetation, and breathtaking vistas that surround us. A sensory feast awaits as we stand amidst nature’s grandeur.

Continuing along the valley, our attention will turn towards one of Catalonia’s most spectacular natural phenomena: “El Salt de Sallent,” Spain’s largest and most magnificent waterfall. From atop a plateau, glistening water cascades over the sheer cliff face, creating a spectacle that leaves visitors breathless. This sight serves as a testament to the region’s geological beauty and the power of nature.

After admiring this wonder, we shall proceed to the Roman Chapel of Sant Joan de Fàbregues for a light refreshment. Following our meal, we’ll make our way back to Rupit, the charming village nestled among these enchanting surroundings.

Upon arriving back in Rupit, we can indulge in local delicacies and then embark on a journey back to Barcelona, concluding our adventure in style.
