Striding through Catalonia part.3a

Hello friends!
Wanna get a good tip?
Striding through unkown land is fun but... striding through unknown land with a good guide is even better.
Yesterday, I went for a journey with Catalan scout, my good friend - Albert.
Firstly we were supposed to walk to a hill situated just one hour by foot from Girona...but frankly, what kind of adventure is that?
So, we used that chance that Albert came with his car and we headed out to Castella de Mont Gris. Now, you probably don't have the slightest idea what is it...
Me neither at that time. But than after half an hour of driving I noticed it...yeah the thing up the hill:



And two news arrived in my mind.
Good one - Castella de Mont Gris is indeed fantastic castle situated on top of impressive hill and the view from it has to bee breathtaking.
Bad one - before you see that beatifull view you'll need to climb up that impressive hill...

We took a "bye-bye photo", like the himalaist take, for their families to remember them in case of ...bad luck.



And we headed up.



Arriba muchacho, arriba!



While ascending we didn't hesitate to stop from time to time and do some sun bathing, like on this cosy stone-bench:



Eventually, after conquering the last cliff we managed to get to the castle. And there we were.
On top of the world.
