Spanning an untamed stretch of northeastern Spain, the Costa Brava is a golden sweep of hidden coves, peaceful fishing villages and some of the best beaches in the country. In short, the ideal destination for a week of coastal walking. With our expert tour leader guiding the way, we set out on foot to discover the highlights – medieval towns, pretty fishing communities and a showreel of coastal vistas – while also stopping at a vineyard for a wine tasting and Salvador Dali’s summer house. Starting and ending in the electric seaside city of Barcelona also allows us to enjoy a touch of culture without getting too swept up in the bustle. Did you know you can travel by train to this trip?

Day 1: Start Barcelona
The adventure begins in Barcelona, the seaside capital of Catalunya and a dream destination for art lovers, shoppers, foodies and more. This evening, we get to know each other a little better with a trip briefing and our first meal as a group. Accommodation: Catalonia Sagrada Familia (or similar)

Day 2: Barcelona city tour; transfer to Begur; circular coastal walk
After breakfast, we have a quick tour of Barcelona stopping at: La Rambla, a landmark avenue of stalls and street entertainers; La Boqueria, a sensation for the senses with a multitude of market traders selling fresh produce; the 195ft (60m) tall Christopher Columbus statue; the magnificent Barcelona Cathedral; and the Gothic Quarter. We then take a private transfer to Begur, a medieval town crowned by a hilltop stone castle. On arrival, we have lunch at one of the many great restaurants near our hotel. Afterwards, we being our walking with a circular route – a fantastic introduction to the dramatic landscape of the Costa Brava, taking in secluded coves, fishing villages and rugged cliffs. Accommodation: Hotel Rosa (or similar)

Day 3: Walk to Pals
This morning, we walk directly from our hotel to the picturesque town of Pals, where we can admire the restored gothic architecture and the Torre de les Hores, a 50ft (15m) tall stone tower that was once attached to a castle but has now become a symbol of the city. From here, we wander through the winding narrow streets to the small gothic church of Sant Pere (which was built using stones from the old Pals castle) for breath-taking panoramic views. We also have lunch in Pals, a good chance to sample the local paella recipe. There will be free time this afternoon and we recommend exploring the old quarter in Begur, visiting the medieval castle, the church, the 16th-century defensive towers and the cultural centre. Accommodation: Hotel Rosa (or similar)

Day 4: Coastal fishing villages and visit to a winery
From Begur, we walk south following the coast, taking in the stunning landscape and wandering through a trio of coastal towns: Tamariu, Llafranc, and Calella de Palafrugell. We are greeted by fantastic views of the shore, with turquoise waters and wild scenery. The route today is mostly on undulating coastal paths. From Calella de Palafrugell, we take a private transfer to Finca Bell Lloc, an idyllic vineyard and winery where we enjoy a wine tasting. Relaxed, we take a private transfer back to Begur. Accommodation: Hotel Rosa (or similar)

Day 5: Visit Aiguamolls de l’Empordà Natural Park
This morning, we take a one-hour private transfer to Aiguamolls de l’Empordà Natural Park, a vital wetland and habitat for a range of animals and plant life. It’s home to a large number of reptiles (toad-headed turtles, three-toed skinks, water snakes), amphibians (various frogs, marbled newts), fish, mammals (rabbits, weasels, badgers, fallow deer), and, of course, birds both permeant residents and migratory. After our walk, we take a private 45-minute transfer to the coastal village of Cadaqués, where we stay for the last two nights. This afternoon, we have free time. We recommend exploring Cadaqués, one of the most charming towns in Catalunya with its seafront promenade, cobblestone streets, and white houses. Alternatively, if weather permits, you can chose to visit one of the beaches near the city centre and enjoy a dip in the sea. Accommodation: Hotel Octavia (or similar)

Day 6: Cadaqués; visit to Dali's summer house and Cap de Creus walk
Today, we walk directly from our hotel and head to the summer house of artist Salvador Dali, a fascinating building decorated with surrealist artwork and furniture. From here, we can enjoy the olive gardens and fantastic Mediterranean Sea views. Afterwards, we set off for Cap de Creus and its lighthouse, our last coastal walk. On our way, we discover more pristine coves and wander around the narrow streets and picturesque waterfront of Cadaqués. In the evening, we have our farewell group dinner in a sea-view restaurant, an excellent chance to relive our adventures together. Accommodation: Hotel Octavia (or similar)

Day 7: End Cadaques; transfer to Barcelona airport
Our adventure ends with a transfer from Cadaques to Barcelona Airport. If you’ve still got the appetite for a bit more exploration, speak to your sales representative to book further nights in our Barcelona hotel.
