Solsona is a small town full of charm, perfect for wandering through its cobbled streets, discovering quiet squares and enjoying a much slower rhythm of life.

Its historic centre still preserves part of its old medieval walls and some of the region’s most emblematic landmarks, such as Catedral de Solsona and the Palau Episcopal de Solsona, home to the Diocesan and Regional Museum.

During the summer, strolling through the old town in the evening, exploring small local shops or sitting quietly on a terrace is one of the most enjoyable ways to experience the town.

Solsonès is an ideal destination for walking, breathing fresh air and discovering landscapes filled with forests, fields and mountains.

Near the hotel, you’ll find peaceful and accessible routes such as Mare de la Font and Castellvell, perfect for a relaxed walk during the warmer days; the path leading to Sant Bartomeu, with beautiful views over the surrounding area; or the Pont de l’Afrau route, surrounded by greenery and nature.

There are also several BTT and gravel cycling routes around Solsona, ideal for exploring the region on two wheels along quiet roads, forest tracks and charming rural villages.

Just a few minutes from Solsona, you can also visit places such as Sant Esteve d’Olius, considered one of the finest examples of Catalan Romanesque architecture.

At La Freixera, we can also recommend routes depending on the time you have available or the type of experience you are looking for.

One of the best summer activities in the area is discovering the Pantà de la Llosa del Cavall, surrounded by mountain scenery and nature.

It’s an ideal spot for activities such as kayaking or paddle boarding, and for enjoying a refreshing morning or afternoon in a peaceful setting.

Not far away, you’ll also find Sant Ponç Reservoir, where several water activities can be enjoyed during the summer months.

The gastronomy of Solsonès reflects the rural and mountain essence of the region. Artisan cured meats, local cheeses, homemade jams, traditional coca de llauna cakes, locally sourced products and traditional cuisine are all part of the experience.This philosophy is also reflected in La Freixera’s breakfasts, prepared with local, artisan and zero-kilometre products to help you start the day slowly and with quality ingredients.

After a day of walking, activities or sightseeing, returning to La Freixera becomes part of the experience itself.

The hotel is set inside a former 14th-century artisan house converted into a boutique hotel, where stone walls, medieval arches, wooden ceilings and historic elements are still preserved throughout many of the rooms.

Here, luxury means calm.

You can end the day relaxing quietly, reading in one of the hotel’s common areas or booking an in-room massage to completely disconnect from the pace of everyday life.
