Mas de la Fargassa can be found on Google Maps and most navigation systems, BUT…
Due to a temporary closure of the D53B, we can currently be reached via Saint-Laurent-de-Cerdans:
On the A9, take exit 43 (just still in France) towards Le Boulou and Ceret, then follow the D115 towards Céret and Amélie-les-Bains.
Past Arles-sur-Tech, in the direction of Prats-de-Mollo, turn left onto the D3 towards Saint-Laurent-de-Cerdans after about 7 kilometers.
In Saint-Laurent, drive past the “8 à Huit” supermarket, and 450 meters further, turn left at the ochre-colored café Bar Le Saint Laurent, onto ‘Le Route du Bac’, heading towards “La Bouadelle”.
After a while, the road turns into a dirt track.
Drive past La Bouadelle and La Solane, until you (finally) reach a paved road again: the Route du Mas Pagris.
After 1.6 km, on the left side, you will find the entrance to our property, La Fargassa. Welcome! 🙂
Mas de la Fargassa is situated in a beautiful protected river valley. From spring 2022 our mountain valley will be protected as a “Zone Naturelle” by the government for day tourism and commercial day activities. The nature reserve will remain accessible to the inhabitants of the mountain valley and our (camping) guests.
To enter our beautiful nature reserve a code/pass will be used. Information about this will follow.
The road into the mountains to Mas de la Fargassa, is breathtakingly beautiful but narrow and windy (about 30 minutes).
It is not suitable for big campers or caravans, only for small campers.
There are just a few places to turn back!
