Catalonia

Catalonia is a small country measuring nearly 32,000 square kilometres (12,000 sq. miles.) in the Northeast corner of Spain.

With over 500 kilometres of Mediterranean coastline, stretching from the French border to the Ebro River Delta, Catalonia boasts an extraordinary variety of landscapes packed into a relatively small area (three quarters the size of Switzerland).

To the north, the jagged peaks and alpine meadows of the Pyrenees offer year-round sport facilities for skiers and hikers alike. From the snow-peaked Pyrenees one descends through lush valleys of pine and fir trees, skirting crystal clear lakes and mountain ranges of unbelievably capricious shapes, such as the extinct volcanic parklands around Olot, and further south, the stone spires of legendary Montserrat – a mountain range so unique it has been declared a conservation area by UNESCO.

Between Tarragona and Barcelona are numerous coastal resorts, like lively Sitges, backed by one of Europe’s most important wine producing regions, the Penedès, origin of 95 percent of the world’s cava production. North of Barcelona, an almost uninterrupted stretch of coastline with numerous marinas leads to Blanes, where the Costa Brava begins.

The Costa Brava is rightfully famous for its breathtakingly beautiful coastline, where wide beaches of golden sand and crystal clear waters alternate with rocky promontories and little coves backed by sheer cliffs topped with pine and oak forests.

The interior of the Costa Brava is every bit as stunning as the coast (and far less affected by tourism), with pristine medieval villages set in lush, typically Mediterranean landscapes.
