The village of Cornudella de Motsant is at a height of 533 metres, on the Serra Major de Montsant, facing the cliffs of La Gritella, and very near to the Siurana Dam. The landscapes arround it are extraordinary.

The village can be set as the centre of different excursions to the Serra Major or to the Sant Joan de Codolar Hermitage, were there is abundant water. You can get there by car. From there, it is fairly easy to reach the peak of Roca de Corbatera (1162 metres) through the Grau del Montsant, the Cova Santa, the Els Pèlegs gully, or the ways to Albarca, Ulldemolins, Margalef and La Morera de Montsant.

The ways across the mountains have been signposted thanks to the "Associacó Excursionista" of Cornudella, with the appropiate signs and placards.

Cornudella de Montsant is a village that is situated on the Priorat Mountains, in the middle of a valley, and by the roads. Therefore it has become a cross of ways, trade and services.

Continuing along its ancient streets, we can accede to the Sierra Major, and to the cliffs of La Gritella, or to wild landscapes, Siurana or El Montsant.

Its agricultural economy has been basically based on the wines and on the hazels. It has developed the industry of the knitted dresses and the dressmaking, and also recently, the craftsmanship and the tourism have also increased.

Some restaurants are set in the village. They offer the typical home meals, very good-tasting.

Near the village, in the quiet places, the peaceful atmosphere makes you feel better.

The place is great for making excursions, climbing, and playing some water activities.

Everything can be enjoyed in the quietness of the village. This feeling envolves almost everything, from the streets to the elegant buildings or the church (a building from the Renaissance designed by Pere Blai).

The swimming-pool, the park and the dam help to create a mild weather, which is specially good for the childhood and the elder people.
