Built in the style of a large Catalan masia, the Parador de Vic-Sau looks straight down onto the Sau reservoir and the cliffs of the Guilleries — a view people come for on its own. It also has a place in Catalan history: the draft of the 1979 Statute of Autonomy, still known as the Estatut de Sau, was written here. Today it hosts weddings, with outdoor ceremonies on its terraces and gardens above the water.
Vic is on the railway; the parador is not
Getting to Vic by public transport is possible: the airport train into Barcelona, then the Rodalies R3 north, around two hours in all with the connection. The problem is what comes after. The parador is around 10-14 km beyond the town on the BV-5213, a winding country road down towards the reservoir, and there is no bus that serves it. Hotel listings put it plainly: from the station, taxi only.
One direct drive instead of a train and a taxi
A direct transfer covers the whole journey — airport arrivals to the parador door — in around an hour and a half, at a price fixed when you book. Your flight is tracked, and you have 60 minutes of free waiting if it lands late. For wedding guests, that means each arrival is covered whatever time their flight gets in.
Practical tips
- Invited to a wedding here? Book your transfer early: the last stretch has no public alternative.
- Plan the return for the morning after an evening event; at the parador there are 15 minutes of free waiting.
- Combining the stay with a visit to Vic’s old town? Tell us and we can drop you in Vic instead of at the parador.
- Add your flight number when booking so a delay is absorbed automatically.
