Itinerary and highlights
Your first stop is Rupit, a beautifully preserved stone village with roots that trace to the 16th century. With your hiking boots on, follow your guide on a walk through the village’s winding, cobblestone streets, and then make your way up into the Pyrenean foothills. Hike for roughly 2.5 hours at a leisurely pace, taking in dramatic views of the mountain scenery that surrounds you.
The route includes stops at several vantage points, allowing you to catch your breath and ogle the scenery. A majestic waterfall, measuring some 360 feet (120 meters) high, is sure to be a highlight of your hike; have your camera ready to capture the sight of the cascading water, flanked by cliff and valley views.
Finish your walk at a centuries-old restaurant, where a 3-course Catalan feast awaits. Dig in to plates such as pork sausage with white beans, and then relax on your journey back to Barcelona. Your tour finishes with a drop-off at the start point.
