North of Barcelona, the coastline begins changing rapidly into an amazing picturesque landscape. These small group day trips to the Costa Brava take you along the secluded beaches and rugged cliffs, enjoying dramatic rock formations, crystal clear water and secluded coves. From the panoramic cliff-tops down to the water’s edge, there are age-old trail routes that wind from village to village, rewarding you with priceless views of the Spanish and French Mediterranean and quiet coves in which you can swim, snorkel and enjoy the sun.
These day escapes begin on a coastal trailhead in one of the many charming Costa Brava Mediterranean villages. On these walking routes you’ll find innumerable links to Catalonia’s rich history: old, winding stone walls, dolmens (old shelters), castle and monastery ruins, olive orchards and intricately terraced mountainsides. Once we’ve completed the route, we’ll explore one of the coastal villages (Cadaqués, Begur, Calella de Palafrugell, Tamariu, Pals, etc.) and stop into a local restaurant for a great lunch before returning to Barcelona.
