A holiday in Ribes de Freser will take you to the heart of Girona, where you’ll be surrounded by nature, historical monuments and world-famous ski slopes.

Ribes de Freser is a town in the province of Girona, Catalonia. In these idyllic natural surroundings, you’ll find ancient trees, symbols of the area’s forest heritage with its unique characteristics. The thousand-year-old oak tree of Perramon and the holly tree of Ventolà, which is the tallest in Catalonia, are just two of the highlights. Make sure you don’t miss out on witnessing them thanks to our cheap trips to Ribes de Freser!

Another must-see is the ski resort of La Molina, which spans some 17 miles. And even though it’s an excellent place to ski in winter, you can enjoy its facilities all year round. In the summer, you can take a dip in their swimming pools, take a boat ride along the lake or enjoy some hiking or cycling routes with the Pyrenees as your backdrop.

The monumental section of the municipality is also worth mentioning: don't forget to visit the old Recolons colony, built in 1870. This site used to be a textile factory that was operational until the 80s. In its heyday, it offer work to a thousand workers. Nowadays, this eclectic, Modernist style building is owned by an electric company.

The icing on the cake with our package deals to Ribes de Freser, though, is a trip to Sant Pere castle, a medieval military construction dating from the 10th century. Only one tower remains, and you can find it just ten minutes from the town centre.

The nearest airport is Girona, although depending on your point of departure you’ll probably find more flights to Barcelona. From there, you can take a suburban train that will drop you off in the town in about two hours. Buses are also available.
