Salt de Sallent, Rupit i Pruït (Catalonia)

It’s curious how a moment of happiness and excitement can turn into a moment of sadness and despair… Yesterday I started the day early, I got to the “Salt de Sallent” just in time to see the sunrise, everything was perfect. Then, I got back to the Rupit Creek and while taking more photos my camera tripod lost grid and the camera ended right at the bottom of the creek. The good news is that I could recovery all the photograph; and who knows… maybe it is time to renew my gear!

Rupit i Pruit (Catalonia)

I took this photo almost a year ago; it was early in the morning and I was in my way to the nearby “Salt de Sallet”, a beautiful waterfall not far from the medieval town of Rupit i Pruit. The town is located in the Collsacabra Region not far from Barcelona. If you have the opportunity to visit it don’t doubt it, you will be able to see the 16th and 17th century houses, the baroque Church of Saint Miquel, a hanging bridge that has become an attraction for tourists, and enjoy traditional Catalan recipes on any restaurant.

Rupit’s Hanging Bridge (Catalonia)

This is perhaps one of the most iconic views of Rupit. This hanging bridge was constructed in 1945 to connect the two parts of the village divided by Rupit’s Creek. But nowadays, it has become a tourist attraction for visitors to this picturesque medieval town. Walking across this suspension bridge is always an experience. If you want to try it for yourself, it is not far from Barcelona and it is a great option for a day trip. Do you like this photo? Get a Print or Download It as Free HD Wallpaper

La Foradada (Cantonigròs, Catalonia)

A few weeks ago, I received a photo of a friend in front of this beautiful waterfall and when I saw the large amount of water in it, I could not resist visiting it on my next free day. La Foradada, which literally means ‘with a hole,’ it is quite impressive and in the summer, it is a great place to swim and cool off. Do you like this photo?

La Serra dels Bufadors (Catalonia)

Recently, I had a fantastic time exploring “La Serra dels Bufadors,” a mountain range located near Santa Maria de Besora between the Osona and Ripolles regions. The views are spectacular high in the mountain range. What is more incredible, however, is the strange inner corridor you can find between the peaks. It appears that, at some point, the mountain cracked and split apart, creating a unique and fragile micro-ecosystem. Do you like this photo? Get Your Print or Download it as a wallpaper

Serra dels Bufadors II (Catalonia)

This is another photo from my last year’s trip to La Serra dels Bufadors, a mountain range located near Santa Maria de Besora in Catalonia. At some point, the mountain cracked and split apart, creating a corridor between the peaks, this photo was taken in the middle of corridor, the walls are tall here and the trees are growing as much as they can to catch the light.Do you like this photo?

Walking Between Rock Walls (Santa Maria de Besora, Catalonia)

This photo is from La Serra dels Bufadors, a mountain range located near Santa Maria de Besora in Catalonia. This is a unique place with a fragile micro-ecosystem. At some point, the mountain cracked and split apart, creating a corridor between the peaks. When you enter the corridor, you feel like you have been transported to a different place, with different weather, different vegetation, and different trees than the ones in the surrounding areas.

The Tanneries Neighborhood (Vic, Catalonia)

The Tanneries Neighborhood (“Les Adoberies” in Catalan) is located in the historical center of the city of Vic. It symbolizes both one of the most important periods of the Osona capital and the growth of the region’s tannery industry. There are documents related to tannery activity from the 12th century, and during the 14th century it became very popular in the area. However, it wasn’t until the 18th century that the Guild of Tanners decided to group all the activity and construct the actual Tanneries Neighborhood.Do you like this photo?

Walking Through La Grevolosa (Sant Pere de Torelló, Catalonia)

This was the first sight I had on my arrival to the Grevolosa forest; the feeling of calm that came to me at the gates of this old-growth forest was overwhelming.

La Grevolosa it is one of the most spectacular beech forest in Catalonia; it is located in the Llancers mountains range. Do you like this photo? Get Your Print or download it as Free HD Wallpaper
