A comprehensive guide to visiting the Spanish Pyrenees. A lot of people visit Barcelona and Costa Brava every year; however, many fewer people visit the Spanish Pyrenees of Catalonia. This lesser known region of Spain offers a perfect place to escape from the often crowded coast, whether you visit it in conjunction with these more popular spots or dedicate an entire trip to this region. Here in the Spanish Pyrenees you'll find several ski resorts, a network of hiking trails and cycling paths, extinct volcanoes, hearty Catalan food, medieval towns, and rich cultural attractions. The Spanish Pyrenees of Catalonia is a great region for those wanting to get out and explore nature, enjoy the peaceful rural countryside, or hideout in the mountains. On the other hand it also offers a plethora of outdoor activities, museums, festivals, hot air balloon rides, and a seemingly infinite amount of quaint Romanesque churches. This guide will cover how to get to the Spanish Pyrenees region, how to explore the area, and a comprehensive guide of what do in the Spanish Pyrenees of Catalonia. Specifically we explore the three comarques (or counties) of la Garrotxa, el Ripollès, and la Cerdanya.
