Estimated time: 2 h 30 m
Elevation difference (positive and negative): 380 m
Difficulty: Moderate
Circular itinerary that offers the possibility of getting to know La Vall de Santa Creu, starting at the Santa Helena car park. The route begins by taking the path of the monastery in a northwesterly direction, with the aim of taking the GR at Mas de la Pallera. Following the GR, it crosses the Rodes mountain range using an easily accessible path. When you reach the eastern end of the Estela mountain range, the route leaves the GR-11 and begins to lose altitude, contemplating the views of Llançà and passing along the route that leads to the El Perer hill. From this point, continue descending until you reach the beautiful medieval town of La Vall de Santa Creu. After visiting this town, it is time to overcome all the accumulated negative slope to return again to the starting point, passing under the monastery of Sant Pere de Rodes, by the Els Monjos fountain and enjoying an unbeatable view of El Port de la Selva.
