MIRADOR-DEL-SURO-GROS-Vilamaniscle_empordaturisme

Mirador del suro gros

Discover the Mirador del Suro Gros, a unique structure oriented from north to northwest, offering breathtaking views of Costabona, Coll del Pertús, Montagut, and Serra de Malbosc. Additionally, this viewpoint captures various distinctive elements of the landscape, such as vineyards and other vegetal formations like pine forests, scrublands, dry meadows, and mountain meadows.

Forest fires are a common phenomenon in Mediterranean ecosystems, shaping landscapes with transient species like scrublands. In an environment where visual regularity is the trend, open spaces, although becoming increasingly scarce, serve as sources of landscape diversity. The Albera forms the easternmost foothill of the Pyrenees, along with the Serra de la Balmeta and the coast of Marenda. This geological unit separates the regions of Rosselló and Empordà, with border passes being the lowest points of the Albera.

Historians suggest that the paths leading to Cotlliure, Banyuls, Manrella, and the Roussillon plain from the plains and coast of Empordà have an ancient origin. Explore all these features at this privileged viewpoint that will connect you with the richness of the region’s landscape.
