The city of Olot spreads out around the base of one of La Garrotxa’s best known volcanoes – Montsacopa – and climbing its slopes is a perfect way to rediscover nature without actually leaving the city. Also known as Sant Francesc, this volcano is a reminder of the landscape that surrounds you in this surprising comarca and one of the best vantage points over Olot. A second must for visitors to Olot looking to enjoy the natural wonders of this comarca is the Parc Nou, home to the Museu dels Volcans.
