Nice in great environment. Closed, , except for guided tours. Stunning with so many nooks and crannies. Road conditions to it poor but well worth the effort to see this little gem. Unfortunately only open on Saturdays outside of the season. But even closed the is impressive from the outside and one can walk around it. The walk from Cantallops to the is nice and not too steep. Very pretty spot but not easy to access and open only a few hours a day so unfortunately we didn’t get to go inside :( What an adventure. Allow at least 30 minutes for the drive up. No sports cars! One of the best castles I've visited. 7€ tour really worth it. Beautiful castle. Prepare for an off road drive. Very narrow and pulse racing if your don't like heights. Wonderful views along the way of the mountains. If you want to see inside the plan ahead and reserve a tour. Small parking at the top, then a little uphill hike. Worth it for the views. Please book ahead of time as the groundskeeper will ask for the tour language and will send you exact directions and some advice on how to get to the castle, the drive up the mountain is not asphalted and might not be for the faint of heart or most cars. However it’s quite spectacular drive up the castle. The tour itself is around 1 hour long, we had it in Spanish. We learnt a lot about the history of the area, the castle, the renovations and local fauna. We also got to explore the entire castle. Visiting feels very different from the usual tourist attraction. First, there is the remote location, surrounded by mountains as far as the eye can see. Everything is part of the vast estate. And there is driving there over six kilometres of gravel road through valley and around steep mountain side, passing through cork oak forest. It is a mini adventure just getting there and well worth the trip. Forget manicured castles with hundreds of tourists and gift and coffee shops. This is just raw and fascinating to explore. Loved it.
