The plan d’Aiats is a steep platform of more than 3 km that is part of the Serra de Cabrera. The Aiats plateau, at an altitude of about 1,300 m, draws a silhouette with a very characteristic profile that is easily identifiable from the plain and which becomes a landscape reference.
In this sparsely populated territory, the green meadows contrast with the limestone cliffs that, on foggy days, tower over the fertile plains and which are, at the same time, fantastic vantage points from where you can see from Pedraforca to Canigó.
