When to come

There are no events in Castellar's calendar yet, so any month works. Ask us about the local festivals: almost every village has one.

  • Spring

    Fields in bloom and good walking temperatures.

  • Summer

    Hot at midday; festivals tend to cluster in these months.

  • Autumn

    Golden light, mushroom season and fewer visitors.

  • Winter

    Cold and short days. Life gathers in the bar and the square.
