Itinerary at a glance

Hiking in France and Spain – you can look forward to great beaches, delicious food, and the Cap de Creus National Park with its picturesque lighthouse. Why not pay a visit to Salvador Dalí's home in Cadaqués?

Collioure welcomes you with an old, picturesque fishing harbour, colourful facades and on the rising grounds you find the renowned vineyards of Collioure.

You walk past the royal palace, between stone walls and cork oak forests to the fortress St. Elme, from where you enjoy a stunning view onto Collioure.

Overnight stay in Banyuls, the most Southern sea resort in France.

The route winds uphill again through vineyards to mountain crests covered in greenery. The tour then leads you with amazing views onto the coast and the mountain tops past the Puig Joan to the "Tour de Querroig", a proud peak on the border with ruins of a signalling tower. You now descend on the Spanish side of the coast headed towards Cerbère.

Walk from Cerbère to Portbou. From there you walk along the sea along numerous rock bays called „calas“, and after that you head for the mountains again, where you walk over the Puig Tiffel with a view onto the nature park ‚Cap de Creus’ and the Albères steeped in sunlight. Llança awaits you with radient white houses, a marvellous location on top of a ledge and a lively old part of town.

Already spoilt by numerous panoramic views during the past hiking days, today you get to enjoy an absolut hightlight with the tour to the monastery of San Père de Rodes!
