ROUTE 4 THE CREUS CAPE & THE ROSES BAY COSTA BRAVA

Route 4 Creus Cape & Bay of Roses
APPROXIMATE DURATION » 2 hours 30 minutes DIFFICULTY » Low PLACES OF INTEREST » Mas d’en Caussa, Pla d’en Caussa, Mas dels Arbres, Font de la Bich, Puig Alt Roses paths brochure

ROUTE: As you go down the highway joining Roses with Cadaqués, take the turn-off to the right that leads to the El Pení air base. Two kilometers from this turn-off, and after having left your vehicle in a small parking lot, take the dirt track that climbs up.

A new path branches off to the left some 200 meters after taking the dirt track. Follow this path a few meters to enjoy a magnificent view of the Norfeu Cape in all its majesty. The site is registered as a natural reserve of the Creus Cape Natural Park, and it is characterized by a great richness of flora and fauna, both on land and underwater. You will also come across the remains of a cremation site built by Indo-European tribes in the 8th century BC.

Return to the initial track and take it up to peak Puig Alt. From this location you can also enjoy one of the site’s most beautiful views: the Bay of Roses on one side, and the Cala Montjoi cove on the other.

The route continues bordering the Puig Alt and then makes a turn of almost 360 degrees to arrive at the Font de la Bich, with a water fountain and a drinking trough for animals. Beyond the fountain, you will discover a magnificent view of the town of Roses before the path takes you to the crossing of Pla de Can Caussa, in honor of the farmhouse which gives its name to this plain. This is a good spot to stop and rest a bit and have a bite to eat.

From here on, the site you will see is the exact opposite view of the Bay of Roses, namely the northern edge of the Creus Cape with the waters of the Mar d’Amunt in the background.

A little further ahead you will reach a little dip with a grove of trees that gives its name to the nearby building: the Mas dels Arbres (literally, the "Trees Farmhouse").

Finally, you will return to the starting point, where you left your vehicle, after having taken a route that has shown you views to the north and south of the Creus Cape, with all its splendorous beauty laid out before your eyes.
