The walk goes from Finistrat to the top of the Puig Campana at an altitude of 1406 meters, at the top you have a beautiful view to all four cardinal points. This incredible mountain is notable for its peculiar conical shape and also for a huge eroded hole in its upper part. You can shorten the walk to 12 km if you don't go to the top.

To an iconic mountain.
From Font de Moli just above Finestraat you walk clockwise along the flanks of the Puig Campana, on a narrow, steadily climbing path towards Coll de Pouet. Along the way it is pure enjoyment of the views to the interior such as on the Aitana. Along the way you always follow the yellow-white marking until the turn right to the top. This is at first a wide hiking trail, but then the ascending (sometimes very steep) trail to the top begins. At the top you can enjoy the beautiful views to the four cardinal points. You go back down the same way to the exit. Here you continue the route to the right along the flank. On the way you first pass a cave on the left, called Cova del Cremat and a little further on the right a dilapidated cave house. Then follows a tough descent and a piece of forest path to the starting point.
Shortening: You can also do the hiking route without the ascent to the top of Puig Campana, the route is then 12 km and has an moderate degree of difficulty with a total ascent of 550 meters.
