WALKING COSTA BRAVA - South - Guided and Selfguided

DAY 1. SANT PERE PESCADOR

Arrival at Sant Pere Pescador, a fisher’s village. We recommend arriving in the afternoon so you can enjoy the excellent beach of Sant Pere. Welcome meeting with our local guide.

DAY 2. SANT PERE PESCADOR - L'ESCALA

Distance: 15km

We will leave the hotel for a pleasant walk by the beach, taking afterwards a detour to the GR92 that gets us away from the coast through rural paths. This allows us to enjoy the landscape of fields full of small canals and rests of the vast old area of the Aiguamolls. We will pass the Empúries Ruins, that are worth stopping by so you can visit one of the biggest Greek and Roman settlement of the Iberian Peninsula.  Before arriving at the hotel, we have an essential visit when you are in L'Escala awaiting for us: an anchovy factory where we can see how anchovies are prepared and taste the well-known anchovies from L'Escala. Arrival at the Hotel.

DAY 3. L'ESCALA - TORROELLA DE MONTGRÍ

Distance: 21km

We will leave La Escala taking the GR92 that crosses the Massís del Montgrí. The path starts beside the see, passing some small coves until Punta Ventosa. At this point the path passes just beside the cliffs. The beauty of this stretch will make us enjoy this corner of the Empordà. We will keep walking to the inland of the Massís until we get to the Montgrí Castle, where we will have outstanding views of the Pyrenees, the Mediterranean and the Empordà flatland. Descent to Torroella and accommodation.

DAY 4. TORROELLA DE MONTGRÍ - BEGUR

Today we will take the path in the inland following the GR92 and visiting the medieval villages of Palau-Sator and Pals.

At the end of the visit, we will enter the village and taste the rice of Pals, cooked in an authentic Catalonian style. Collection at the restaurant and transfer by car to Begur. Accommodation in Begur. 

DAY 5. BEGUR - CALELLA DE PALAFRUGELL

Distance: 14km

This is one of the days when we will see a bigger variety of landscapes. The path penetrates into the Mediterranean forest, crosses small and virgin coves, goes through paths with breath-taking views of the Mediterranean Sea and gets into very charming villages like Tamariu, Llafranc or Calella de Palafrugell, typical fisher’s village. Accommodation in Calella de Palafrugell.

DAY 6. CALELLA DE PALAFRUGELL - PALAMÓS

Distance: 12km

This is one of the most spectacular stretches of the route since you will pass small coves, a virgin beach of an incomparable beauty and Mediterranean forests of pines, oaks and olive trees. You will end up in Palamós, with a fishing port still in use, a fish market for professionals open every weekday and a very interesting Fishing Museum. In the afternoon a guide will be waiting for you in the fishing market to explain you all the process and, after that, you will taste the marine cooking. Accommodation in Palamós.
