It’s a small, abandoned village in the mountains of
Catalonia, Spain. Once a lively town, it was gradually abandoned in the 1950s,
and today it stands as a haunting yet fascinating ghost village with ruined
buildings and a spooky, misty atmosphere. While some accounts say the village was deserted due
to insects (phylloxera) which destroyed the local vineyards, others say that
the locals knew that the village was doomed and left.

The village is part of the Prades Mountains, a region known for its stunning natural beauty, hiking trails, and dramatic landscapes.
But
what really draws people to La Mussara is its reputation for strange phenomena.
Locals and visitors alike speak of supernatural occurrences, with stories of
people disappearing or experiencing disorienting sensations, as if they’ve
stepped into another dimension. There's even a local legend about a
"stone" or "portal" in the village that can transport you
to another world!
At an altitude of 995 meters above sea level, it's a popular spot for hikers and adventure seekers due to the nearby routes, such as the scenic climb to the Mussara viewpoint, which offers breathtaking views of the Mediterranean coast on clear days.
