General information:
This is a one boot independent walking holiday with spectacular walking by day, and high standard hotels by night. The walking is fairly gentle on well looked after paths and tracks. The route first follows the winding, sandy paths of mainland Spain's loveliest coast, then heads inland where you'll discover the unspoilt landscapes of Catalunya and finally takes you through forest paths back to the sea.
Location:
The holiday starts and ends in Calella de Palafrugell.
This independent walking holiday explores a region called 'Baix Emporda' between the coastal towns of Gerona and Figueres. You'll visit places like Castell d'Emporda, the pretty mediaeval villages of Corca, Monells and La Bisbal and the hilltop town Begur with it's castle, impressive villas and pretty narrow streets. The region is also known for it's abundant bird and plant life and preserved natural habitats.
