Pont Penjat - Rupit Village: A Hidden Gem You’ll Love! 🌟
If you’re exploring Catalonia, don’t miss Pont Penjat (the Hanging Bridge) in Rupit Village—it’s like stepping into a storybook! 📖✨ Here’s why I loved it:
The bridge itself: This wooden suspension bridge is a fun little adventure! 🎢 It wobbles as you cross (in the best way!), making it a hit for kids and adults alike. Perfect for snapping unique photos. 📸 Scenic surroundings: Once you cross, you’re greeted by the charming, cobbled streets of Rupit Village. 🏞️ The old stone houses, flower-lined balconies, and peaceful vibes make you feel like you’ve gone back in time. Family-friendly vibe: Very cozy and welcoming. Kids will love the bridge and exploring. 👨👩👧👦 Hikes nearby: You’ll find some great trails, especially if you’re up for the short hike to Salt de Sallent (the stunning waterfall nearby). 🚶♂️💧 Food & rest: Plenty of rustic cafés and restaurants serving traditional Catalan dishes. Don’t skip the local cured meats or “coca de Rupit” (a type of sweet bread). 🍽️
💡 Tips: Wear comfy shoes for the cobblestone streets. 👟 It gets busy on weekends, so go early if you prefer fewer people. 🕘 Parking can be tricky—arrive prepared for a short walk to the village. 🚗
