One-hour guided tour of the old town of Rupit with the tourist office, by reservation: €70 for a group of up to 20 people, free for under-10s.

What it is
The Rupit i Pruit tourist office organises guided tours of Rupit's historic centre, with advance booking. In an hour you walk through the village with a guide who explains its history: the castle built around the year 1000 on the rock that gives it its name, from the Latin rupes, its period of splendour between the 16th and 18th centuries and how its old town of cobbled streets and stone houses has been preserved.
The route

Start from the tourist office, on camí de Sant Joan de Fàbregues.
The hanging bridge, over the stream.
Carrer del Manyà and carrer de l'Església.
The church of Sant Miquel, with its neoclassical bell tower of 1786 to 1789.
Plaça Major.
Carrer de Palau and carrer del Fossar, stepped into the rock.
Plaça dels Cavallers.
Carrer del Coll del Castell.
Carrer del Bac de l'Era, where the tour ends.

Duration and price

Duration: 1 hour.
1 to 20 people: €70 per group.
More than 20 people: €3.50 per person.
Under-10s: free.
Maximum group: 40 people.

The price is per group, so for a family or a group of friends it pays to join together: with 10 people, it is €7 each.
How to book
Book beforehand at the Rupit i Pruit tourist office: 938 522 003 or 610 24 24 42, or at turisme@rupitpruit.cat. Ask about languages and available times when you book: the Town Council does not publish a fixed calendar.
Getting there and parking
Leave the car in the municipal car park at the entrance to the village: free for the first 45 minutes, €2.50 up to 2 hours and €6 for 4 to 24 hours. Count the length of the tour plus the time to reach the office. Rupit is on the C-153, about 45 minutes from Vic and Olot; from Barcelona, about two hours. There is a Sagalés bus from Barcelona and Vic, with few services.
With children and accessibility
Under-10s do not pay. An hour on foot through the old town is manageable for children, and the hanging bridge and the streets cut into the rock keep them entertained. The route goes along cobbled streets and with steps, such as carrer del Fossar: with a pushchair or wheelchair it is not practical; ask at the office if you need an alternative.
If you prefer to go independently
The same route can be done with just the office's map: you have it in the walk round the village and the hanging bridge. The guided tour is worth it if you want the history and anecdotes of the village, or if you are going as a group.
