Cornudella de Montsant tourist office

Siurana has no tourist office of its own: the one that serves visitors is down in Cornudella de Montsant, the village where the road up begins. It is on carrer Comte de Rius, no number, at the entrance to the village and near the Modernista wine cellar of the Celler Cooperatiu. If you are going to Siurana for the first time, stopping here before you go up saves you wasted trips: they advise on routes, pools, the reservoir and guided visits.

Opening hours and contact

According to the Turisme Siurana website, the office is open on Fridays and Saturdays from 9:00 to 14:30 and from 16:00 to 18:00, and on Sundays and public holidays from 9:00 to 14:00. At Easter and on some special dates it extends its hours to weekdays. The website does not publish hours for Monday to Thursday, so on those days call 977 821 000 beforehand or write to [email protected]. The turismesiurana.org website also has a contact form.

Turisme Priorat publishes other opening hours for the office on various undated pages, so the most reliable reference is the Turisme Siurana website or a phone call.

What they can sort out for you

The office is also an information point for the Serra de Montsant Natural Park. It is the place to ask about:

• Guided visits. The guided visit of Siurana, run by Còdol Educació on the second Saturday of each month, is booked with Còdol (977 327 362) or at this office.
• Walking routes. The old path to Siurana starts from Cornudella, 4.8 km and one hour fifty, and the Camí de la Trona from the village.
• Pools and reservoir. The routes to the Toll de la Palla and the Toll del Forn are not waymarked: ask for directions before you go. For kayaking on the reservoir, the company does not take bookings.
• Vineyards and wineries. Cornudella is in the Montsant DO, and options such as the 4x4 route through the vineyards start from here.

Parking and going up to Siurana

The office is in Cornudella, so you can leave your car in the village, get your information and then drive up. Up in Siurana, you can only park in the P1, P2 and P3 car parks, paid all year round, €3. Motorhomes do not go up: they must stay at Càmping Siurana or at the Cornudella football pitch, as we explain in the entry on motorhomes.

Getting to Cornudella

From Reus you take the N-420 to Les Borges del Camp and then the C-242 to Cornudella.
