Holiday apartment in Fontclara: olive oil, Romanesque murals and hiking route

A holiday apartment in Fontclara offers you a stay amid olive-growing culture, Romanesque murals and a medieval hiking route.

This creates a clear picture for choosing your location, combining enjoyment, culture and hiking.

Holiday apartment in Fontclara: olives, oil and Empordà

The bookable Fontclara experience centres on a guided tour through olive groves and an oil mill. It also includes a sensory olive oil tasting in nature featuring extra virgin olive oil, an aperitif and a glass of wine with seasonal products from the Empordà region. The experience lasts approximately 90 minutes; advance reservation is required. This sequence is particularly effective at combining landscape, production and flavour in a visit of manageable length. For travellers who want to discover regional products not only on their plate but also in their landscape context, Fontclara sets a clear emphasis here.

Romanesque murals at Sant Pau de Fontclara

The partially preserved Romanesque murals of Sant Pau de Fontclara offer a second way to experience the village. In the apse, they depict the Maiestas Domini surrounded by the Tetramorph. There are also figures of the apostles and scenes from the cycle of Saint Paul. The sequence of images gives the stay a specific cultural focus and invites visitors to examine the individual motifs attentively. Sant Pau de Fontclara is located in the centre of the village of Fontclara.

Access to Sant Pau de Fontclara is not adapted for people with reduced mobility. No public opening hours are specified. These two points are relevant to practical day planning if you wish to include the murals in your trip.

Hiking on the medieval route

For active days, the medieval route from Palau-sator to Pals passes through the Parc Natural del Montgrí, les Illes Medes i el Baix Ter nature park and reaches Fontclara. Those who wish to travel on foot can consider this route as a separate element of their trip alongside the experiences centred on Fontclara. When choosing a holiday apartment, this provides a useful distinction between a stay focused on culture and enjoyment and a plan that incorporates the route through the nature park.
