What to do near Peralada Castle to make your wedding truly perfect?

Castell Perelada is much more than a place to celebrate a wedding: it is a destination to experience, discover and share.

Located in the heart of Alt Empordà, Peralada Castle enjoys a privileged location, combining the exclusivity of your wedding in the Empordà with cultural, gastronomic and nature getaways.

Our Castle’s privileged location, with excellent connections to Girona-Costa Brava Airport 60 km away, Josep Tarradellas Barcelona-El Prat Airport 150 km away, Perpignan-Rivesaltes Airport 65 km away, Figueres-Vilafant AVE train station 10 km away, and Girona AVE train station 49 km away, makes it an ideal destination to reach with ease.

Discovering Peralada: history and wine-making tradition

The village of Peralada itself is a must-visit. Strolling through its streets allows you to discover its medieval past, the Romanesque Cloister of Sant Domènec, the Jewish Quarter and the “Plaça Gran”.

The Castell de Peralada is one of the municipality’s main landmarks, with its gardens, the “Convent del Carme” and Museum Castell Perelada.

For wine lovers, a visit to Perelada Winery, designed by the RCR architecture studio, offers the opportunity to discover the Empordà’s winemaking tradition and enjoy a tasting in a unique setting.

A getaway to the Costa Brava

Just a short distance from Peralada, the landscape opens onto the Mediterranean. The Costa Brava offers crystal-clear coves, charming fishing villages and landscapes that are perfect for unwinding.

Among the places worth discovering are Garbet Beach, surrounded by vineyards and mountains; Cap Ras, with its small coves and paths lined with pine and olive trees; and Cala Tamariua, in Cap de Creus.

Further south, Aiguablava, Aigua Xelida, Illa Roja or Llafranc are other options for enjoying a day by the sea and discovering different landscapes along the Catalan coast.

Walking by the sea along the Coastal Path

The Camí de Ronda Coastal Path is one of the best ways to discover the Costa Brava. Its various sections wind along cliffs, coves, Mediterranean forests and villages, with the Mediterranean as a backdrop.

From the surroundings of Peralada, you can explore routes such as Colera to Llançà, the stretch from Llançà to Port de la Selva, the route through Cap de Creus, or the path from Cadaqués to Portlligat.

Discovering the world of Salvador Dalí

The Empordà is also closely linked to Salvador Dalí. The Dalí Route allows visitors to discover some of the places that shaped the artist’s life and work.

In Figueres, the Dalí Theatre-Museum is a must see. In Portlligat, the Salvador Dalí House offers an insight into his most intimate world, while in Púbol visitors can explore Gala Dalí Castle.

Charming medieval villages

The Empordà is home to both seaside and medieval villages. Cadaqués, Port de la Selva, L’Escala, Sant Martí d’Empúries and Peratallada, invite you to stroll among coves, cobbled streets, medieval walls and historic buildings.

These are ideal getaways for combining heritage, landscapes and gastronomy while sharing a special day with family and friends.
