Catalonia

Catalonia is one of the most exciting and diverse regions of Spain. Its rich history, traditions, strong identity and fierce Catalan pride make it a region full of passion, with truly unique food, people and scenery.

Walk the Costa Brava's coastal paths from Begur to S'Agaró on Walking the Catalan Coast – or In Style – take the classic Mediterranean trail from Collioure in France to Cadaqués, or walk through the Aiguamolls nature reserve to Cadaqués and the Cap de Creus. Prefer to cycle? Pedal traffic-free rural trails through olive groves, vineyards and orchards on Cycling in Catalonia.

We've been helping travelers explore this region on foot and by bike since 2010, with great accommodation, insider tips, luggage transfers and detailed route information.
