Walking Girona’s ancient walls is a great way to explore the city. The walk is roughly 3km with steep steps leading up to the towers which provide beautiful views of the Pyrenees mountain range.
Girona is a small medieval city about a 1.5-hour drive north of Barcelona. Located halfway between the majestic peaks of the Pyrenees and the rugged Costa Brava coast, the town sits on the confluence of four rivers and has a rich history that goes back to the Roman ages. Impressive walls, dating back to the medieval ages, surround the historic city centre.
A popular square surrounded by cafes, bars and restaurants - a great place for meeting friends!
Tucked away in the northeastern corner of Catalonia, the Costa Brava coastline is a treasure trove of secluded coves, steep cliffs and golden sands.
There are a mixture of quiet fishing villages and lively seaside towns dotted along the coastline.
If lying horizontally isn’t your thing, the coastal paths that traverse the Costa Brava region offer spectacular views.
The cathedral was constructed in the 11th century and more recently has been a backdrop for the iconic Game of Thrones TV series. Tickets for the cathedral start from €5 and include an audio tape.
