Hiking

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.

We do not always need to climb a tall mountain or embark on a very demanding hike to find magical spots. Sometimes, the places we imagine when we think of disconnecting are closer than we think, and getting there doesn't require much effort. If you need to breathe in some fresh air but are not feeling very fit or are short on time, here are some recommendations that will leave you with no excuses. The six routes we describe below are easy, and you will need only one to three hours ahead of you to enjoy nature and some heritage sites. You will barely break a sweat! 

Prepara’t per descobrir (o redescobrir!) racons que enamoren, plens d’història, natura, cultura i autenticitat. T’esperen a tocar de Barcelona i tenen molt per oferir. Aquí van 10 idees per omplir-te d’energia i ganes de fer ruta!

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-19^th 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.

Deixa’t captivar per les comarques de Barcelona a ritme de trencadís i ferro forjat. Des de les torres burgeses de la Garriga fins a la reforma del castell de Santa Florentina a Canet de Mar, sis rutes modernistes t'acosten a un art que va voler fer de cada detall una obra. Amb el record de mestres més que reconeguts com Domènech i Montaner o Puig i Cadafalch, però també d’arquitectes modernistes que van passar més desapercebuts com Joaquim Manuel Raspall, cada façana és un record de l’esplendor d’un temps que encara avui et fa parar i mirar amunt. Un viatge de mosaic i color que transforma qualsevol passejada en un espectacle únic.

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?
