Prullans natural viewpoint of Cerdanya

The historic Catalan region of Cerdanya contains numerous heritage and natural treasures of which Prullans is a notable example. Prullans is a small town nestled in the heart of the Pyrenees in Lleida, halfway between La Seu d’Urgell and Puigcerdà. A privileged location to enjoy intensely mountain activities, discover unique places and disconnect from the frenetic pace of daily life.

A historical and geographical approach

The municipality of Prullans has its roots in the creation of the historic nucleus of La Seu d'Urgell, to which it was attached as a parish, although it would acquire a more independent character in the 11th century. Given its strategic position between France, Andorra and Catalonia, the area kept changing hands until in the 17th century the jurisdiction over the municipality was recognized. However, the creation of a City Hall independent of any noble house would not arrive until 1942.

Prullans is located north of the Cadí-Moixeró Natural Park, a place of great ecological and landscape value. In fact, the town enjoys exceptional views of the Sierra del Cadí, a panoramic view enjoyed by the majority of houses sold by Real Estate Agency Engel & Völkers. In any case, the beauty of the Cadí Mountain Range is not the only natural incentive of the region. The municipality has other areas such as a part of the Calm Colomer Mountain Range or the Puig Pelat de Talltendre Mountain and is crossed by the Coborriu river and several streams.

The surroundings of Prullans stand out for different archeological sites of great interest, such as the Dolmen de Orén, a megalithic monument in whose interior pieces of goldsmith were found, as well as Neolithic and Bronze Age tools. Not far from this point, cave lovers can be surprised by the Cova d'Anes, a cavity that offers different low difficulty routes and has a considerable collection of stalactites.

The experience of life in Prullans

Prullans enjoys a peaceful lifestyle in its picturesque streets. A gentleness that can be seen in the elegant sobriety of the traditional houses of the old town, where the church of Sant Esteve stands out, a Romanesque temple of great historical value. This construction is mentioned in the first written reference about Prullans, which dates from the 10th century and its most prominent section is the apse. To highlight the traditional living Bethlehem represented annually as one of the central Christmas events in town.

The village house is the most common type of construction that can be purchased in this town, with the possibility of being used as vacation homes. Also single family houses are found, for example, in the residential area "La Pleta de Prullans" which is entirely dedicated to holiday homes. The same can be said of the farmhouses, those mountain houses so typical of Catalonia that at this point in the Pyrenees are always welcoming, especially after an intense day of activities. Do not forget that from Prullans you can easily arrive to the ski resorts of Masella and La Molina.

The recreational offer is completed with the Cerdanya Ecoresort hotel, a large complex that offers restaurant and wellness services as well as organizing endless activities in the area. The sports facilities, the spa, the programs for groups and families, as well as the "Life Reset" plans deserve special mention.
