<p>El Garrofer Campsite in Sitges</p>

Glamping is an increasingly popular option to enjoy nature without giving up any comfort. The term is a portmanteau of the words “glamorous” and “camping”, which pretty much tells you that the experience promises peace and quiet in luxury. Here’s a selection of nearby options for enjoying the coast, the Pyrenees and the finest landscapes in the regions of Barcelona. Are you ready to discover them?

<p>Masia Can Pascol</p>

What do you look for in a rural house? A natural setting? Somewhere comfortable? A place where you can switch off? With a fireplace or a spa? If your answer to any of these questions is “Yes!”, you’ve come to the right place. What’s more, we can recommend some rural houses that, in addition to all of this, are fully sustainable, with a net-zero (or close to net-zero) energy footprint, so you’ll be looking after the environment during your stay as well. Now all you have to do is pick one!

<p>Sant Jeroni de la Murtra</p>

Visiting a monastery is always fascinating. Its monumental architecture, the sense of peace and quiet it exudes, the beauty of its cloisters, the works of art it treasures... But the experience is even better if we can discover their hidden mysteries. We’re going to tell you four stories and legends so that you can become familiar with the monumental sites in the regions of Barcelona.

<p>Montserrat Shrine</p>

Montserrat mountain is one of the cultural, spiritual and religious symbols of Catalonia – a place where people go to see the shrine of the Black Madonna and the children of the choir singing the Virolai hymn. But Montserrat is also a natural park with its own personality: provided by the dozens of rounded needles that characterise its line of summits.

<p>A hiker walking in the Collserola Mountain Range</p>

Now that the cold weather is upon us, you might feel like staying at home under a nice warm blanket, but actually there are plenty of hikes that are suitable for even the coldest of days. By the sea or in the mountains, the regions of Barcelona are full of spots that almost always catch some sun and where you can enjoy your surroundings in pleasant temperatures! Are you keen to discover them?

<p>Fira Medieval i Festa de la Sal de Cardona</p>

One of the most typical ways to relive the Middle Ages in Catalonia and Barcelona is to explore their vast Romanesque and Gothic heritage. But you may not know about the many mediaeval fairs that can be enjoyed throughout the year in several towns close to Barcelona.
