Just north of Barcelona, in the heart of Catalonia, the rugged Costa Brava on the Mediterranean provides numerous hiking trails with panoramic views and great snorkeling spots for a perfect day trip out of Barcelona. The winding cliff-top trails and hidden coves offer unforgettable views of the Costa Brava as well as perfect swimming and snorkeling opportunities to cool off in the crystal clear Mediterranean. A good level of fitness is recommended, but there are a variety of coastal routes we use depending on group interest and ability (kids are more than welcome!).
As you enjoy a pleasant hike, your expert guide will share with you the rich history, culture, and traditions of Catalunya. The trails ultimately lead to one of the small fishing villages where a plentiful beach-front lunch and drinks await you (included in the Classic version). Finally, there is time to explore the quaint village after lunch and to enjoy a bit of beach time before returning to Barcelona.
