Wander through its winding cobbled streets, admire the medieval stone houses, and soak in panoramic views from the castle overlooking the countryside.
We’ll stop for a relaxed morning coffee before visiting the fascinating MACVAC – Museum of Contemporary Art of Vilafamés (entrance not included, €3). Set inside a beautiful historic building, the museum features works by artists including Andy Warhol and Salvador Dalí. Even visitors who don’t usually enjoy art are often surprised by how engaging and inspiring this museum is.
Next, we continue to the spectacular Miravet Castle ruins, dramatically perched high above the surrounding landscape. This impressive fortress complex includes the main castle, outer defensive walls, and even a chapel hidden within the walls themselves. From the top, enjoy incredible views stretching from the Mediterranean Sea all the way to Mount Penyagolosa, the highest peak in the Valencian Community.

Cascada La Castellana, Lunch in Sot de Chera
6 June 8.45 Aragon 58
35€ Guests/28€ Members
This Saturday, join us for a beautiful day out that combines a hidden natural gem with one of our favourite lunch spots.
Our walk takes us to El Chorro de Castellana, a stunning waterfall near the town of Chera. While the waterfall has always been a lovely place to visit, the flooding last October dramatically reshaped the landscape, creating a much larger and more impressive natural pool beneath the falls — perfect for swimming during the summer months.
The hike begins beside one of the historic churches in Chera and follows a scenic 5.5 km circular route. Starting from the highest point of the town, the path descends steeply into a beautiful green valley, with the waterfall as the highlight of the walk. We then return to Chera by a gentler uphill trail, giving you plenty of time to enjoy the scenery and take photos along the way.
After the walk, we will drive to the neighbouring village of Sot de Chera for lunch at the famous La Placeta Restaurant (lunch not included in the trip price). Among our group, this restaurant has become something of a legend. Opened by a New Zealand chef who fell in love with a local girl from the village, La Placeta serves food that is far beyond what you would normally expect to find in a small Spanish mountain tow

Once at the castle, we’ll relax with an early picnic lunch in the shade of the ancient ruins, soaking up the atmosphere and incredible scenery.
