Costa Brava
GR 92 "Cami de ronda"
The best coastal walks
Outstanding treasures of the Mediterranean!
"Cami de Ronda" means "patrol path", long time used by the authorities to watch the coast and by fishermen to
have access to harbours and coves.
This section of the Costa Brava is part of the long distance GR 92 snaking for almost 400 km along the Catalan coast.
The itineraries offer a wonderful succession of colourful landscapes: jagged capes and high cliffs, pine and holm oak forests, rare vestiges of Antiquity, rocky coves and unspoilt beaches, a great variety of Mediterranean flora, lovely fishing villages.
You stay in a different village every evening and enjoy
the local cuisine of fresh sea products.
