<p>An image of the Springs of the Llobregat River in the region of Berguedà</p>

Pyrenean nature, charming villages, some 15 textile model villages and a delta that provides an oasis for peaceful birds, just a stone’s throw from aeroplanes. What links all these elements together? The Llobregat Path! It’s a fully signposted long-distance path stretching 170 km that can be enjoyed in hot and cold weather. It’s a great way to enjoy exploring one of Catalonia’s major rivers on foot or by bike, whichever you prefer. Here are some the stretches we recommend visiting.

<p>A motorhome through Bages</p>

The Grand Tour of Catalonia is an itinerary of more than 2,000 kilometres inspired by the great journeys popular among young European nobility in the mid-19th century. It has been designed as a single thirteen-day itinerary or in five sections of between five and seven days. The fact that it is divided into stages allows you to plan short getaways and take advantage of however many days you have available. Below we propose three routes to travel by motorhome on which you can discover the best landscapes in the Barcelona region.

<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.
