Catalan Coast Walking Holiday

Rocky coves and orange groves

Frontier battles gave way long ago to the simple fishing and agriculture which prevail today. An easy walk becoming moderate in places with several steep climbs. There is little shade from the Mediterranean sun, so bring a sunhat. Stunning views, friendly people and unique culture.
