Day 1 Arrive Collioure

Make your own way to Collioure and the joining hotel. Collioure is a beautiful old sea port where the Fauvist art movement began. Dependent on your arrival time, you can visit the city and its surroundings (including some of the coastal walk shown on day 2), discover some paintings by Matisse and Derain, or simply relax by the sea.

Day 2 Walk to Banyuls-sur-Mer (5 or 5.5hrs)

Walking past the Royal Castle and along the seafront and beach, you then climb between the stone walls and cork oaks, the old mill and Fort St Elme, enjoying a magnificent view of Collioure. From here, there are two possible variant walks, shorter or longer, either al...

Day 3 Ridge walk descent to Cerbère (4 or 5hrs)

This morning you begin in Banyuls - if you have spent the night in Collioure you take the local bus or train back to Banyuls to begin your walk. The walk takes you along the coast - you'll be near the marine nature reserve of Cap Cerbere, an area rich in fish and cle...

Day 4 Walk into Spain and the Catalan town of Llança (4 or 7hrs)

Following the coast today you'll pass the pretty Garbet beach and the little coves of Cap Ras, before arriving at the traditional Spanish fishing town of Llança. The scenery and local small harbour painted in blue and white create a totally Catalan ambiance. If you pr...

Day 5 Continue from Llança to Port de la Selva (4.5 or 5hrs)

Along the coast the path runs past modern villas and the lighthouse of Sarnella before reaching Port de la Selva, a pretty, lively harbour with an air of tranquility. You can extend your walking and discover the intimacy of the Fornells Cove, a superb foretaste of the...

Day 6 Walk to Cadaques (4 or 6.5hrs)

Requirements
GRADE 3 - This is a self guided walk with average daily stages of 3.5 – 6.5 hours. The walking is graded moderate, however each day there is an option to join a more challenging route (sporty route). There are many ups and downs as you would expect in the foothills of the Pyrenees with nights spent on the coast. Walking poles are definitely a good idea. A reasonable level of fitness is required. IMPORTANT NOTE: Navigation on this trip can be complex at times so good map reading skills and experience using a compass are important. The trip is suitable only for experienced walkers who are proficient in trail finding. The walk takes you up into the mountains during the day and back down to a coastal town for your next nights accommodation. Therefore there are no towns visited enroute and no shops to purchase supplies once you have left town. As with all of our trips it is important that you are well prepared. We suggest that you undertake regular exercise – swimming, cycling, and jogging, two to three times a week for three months prior to your departure. Daypack, wet weather gear, good walking boots / shoes, water bottle and sun protection. A comprehensive gear list is included in the pre-departure information provided on booking.,
Travel Insurance
We strongly recommend purchasing travel insurance alongside your travel package to safeguard against unforeseen circumstances such as medical expenses, trip cancellations, and other contingencies. It offers you peace of mind and ensures you are prepared for unexpected events that may occur before or during your journey
Visa requirements
Visa requirements vary depending on your country of origin and your country of destination. It is your responsibility to familiarize yourself with the relevant requirements. For a handy tool that can help you quickly find the requirements, please visit this link .
