Beginning on the Coast, where the cliffs drop to the waters of the Ancient Mediterranean, we leisurely move toward the Catalan Pyrenees Mountains. Beautiful clusters of lakes and the headwater valleys of Catalonia's chief rivers nestle between towering peaks. Attractions include: facilities for winter sports, adventure sports, mountaineering and rock-climbing, a highly rated, distinctive cuisine, a rich heritage of Romanesque art, natural parks and reserves, highly picturesque towns, opportunities for country holidays and a good range of accommodation.
