Peratallada tourist office

The Peratallada tourist office is at Plaça del Castell, 3, inside the medieval centre. It is the office of the municipality of Forallac, to which Peratallada belongs, and can be reached on 872 987 030 and at [email protected]. Visit Forallac states that it takes part in SICTED, the tourist quality system for destinations.

Opening hours

Visit Forallac publishes hours of 10:30 to 13:30 and 16:00 to 20:00, without distinguishing days or seasons. Outside summer, and especially on weekdays in winter, it is best to call ahead to confirm.

What they can sort out for you

It is the place to ask for the map of the centre and the municipality’s tourist leaflets, which Visit Forallac also offers on its website. With the map, the walk around the medieval centre takes one or two hours: the castle-palace from 1065, Plaça de les Voltes, the moat cut into the rock and the wall and the church of Sant Esteve. The Torre de les Hores, with a clock and viewpoint, can be climbed free of charge.

Ask too about what is around: the Iberian town of Ullastret, 4 km away, the short Fitor dolmens route, designed for small children, or the longer Serra d’en Cals one. And in October, about the Fira Medieval, on the first weekend of the month.

Getting here and parking

By car you arrive along the Vulpellac road, which passes through Canapost; Vulpellac is on the Girona to Palamós road via La Bisbal. The centre does not allow free traffic, so the car stays in one of the three car parks: Dalt, to the west, about 200 spaces; l’Església, next to Sant Esteve, 40 spaces; and Baix, to the east, 200 spaces and room for coaches. From 14 June to 14 September, from 2 to 6 April and during the Fira Medieval the blue zone applies from 9:00 to 22:30, with the first half hour free and a maximum of €6 a day.

Without a car, Visit Forallac states that Moventis has buses from the Estació del Nord in Barcelona, from Girona station and from the stop opposite Flaçà railway station, 14 km away, but with a frequent service only as far as La Bisbal and less frequent to Vulpellac and Peratallada. In the annual timetable of its line 22, La Bisbal – Peratallada – Pals – Palafrugell, it publishes one bus per direction on weekdays.

Where to sleep and eat

In the centre are the Hostal Blau, in a 16th-century house, and the Hotel El Pati. For eating, the Restaurant La Roca has served seasonal cooking since 1992.
