L'Empordà, Campground in Torroella de Montgrí, Spain
L'Empordà is a campground with 261 pitches spread across about 3.5 hectares near the Mediterranean Sea, next to the Natural Park of Montgri and Medes Islands. The facility includes a swimming pool, supermarket, sports areas, and designated zones for children.
The area was home to Iberian settlements, Romanesque churches, and Gothic monasteries spanning more than a thousand years of history. These remains demonstrate the long occupation and cultural layers of the region from ancient times through the medieval period.
The region maintains its connection to the sea and agriculture, reflected in local restaurants serving Mediterranean dishes made with fresh ingredients from the area.
The site can be explored on foot or by bicycle, with access to walking trails in the Montgri massif and cycling routes along the Ter River. The best time to visit is from late spring through early autumn when the weather is pleasant and most facilities are fully operational.
The grounds are directly connected to a network of cycling paths that follow the Ter River and lead visitors deep into the surrounding landscape. This connection to larger routes lets you use the site as a starting point for broader exploration rather than just as a place to sleep.
