The tranquil surroundings are perfect for nature and adventure sports. You can also visit Barcelona. This is the closest Parador to the Catalan capital (82 kilometers by car), allowing you to make the short journey from the hotel for day trips to the cosmopolitan city.
In addition to excursions to nearby sights like Sau Reservoir and Casserres Monastery, the town of Vic is well worth a visit. Its old quarter will transport you back in time, where you will discover such treasures as the Roman temple, city walls and cathedral.
The beauty of the Parador and its surrounding area, its exquisite cuisine and proximity to lovely Barcelona, together with the peaceful natural setting, make this an exceptional place that is sure to fascinate.
The hotel is located in one of the loveliest parts of the Osona district, with the Guillerías Mountains in the distance and Sau Reservoir at its feet. The Parador reflects the traditional style of a Catalan country house. Its beautifully maintained garden, guest rooms with balconies and a magnificent swimming pool with views of the exceptional landscape make this a wonderful place to get away from it all and relax.
From the C-25, take exit 183 towards Roda de Ter (C-153). Turn right onto the BV-5213, which leads directly to the Parador.
Vic is the capital of the inland district of Osona, located along the banks of the Meder River in Barcelona province. It has a lovely historic quarter noted for its cathedral. The church, built in the late 18th century, is neoclassical in style. Among its main attractions are a group of wall paintings by Josep María Sert inside. A tour of Vic should also include such iconic sights as the Episcopal Palace, situated next to the cathedral complex; porticoed Plaza Mayor (Main Square); Roman temple; Sant Domènech Monastery and La Pietat Church.
After visiting the town of Vic, travelers can continue on to Sant Pere de Casserres Monastery, which dates from the 11th century. Along the route to the Pyrenees, you will find the Garrotxa Volcanic Zone Nature Reserve, Olot and Ripoll.
