Girona contains all the good things of Catalonia in less space. Great mountains, imposing volcanoes, rivers and lakes full of life, a surprising coastline ... A natural heritage without equal and a climate that allows you to enjoy the activities in nature in Girona throughout the year.

 

There are endless long and short routes, as well as local trails, for hiking through the Pyrenees and the Costa Brava. To admire the coves and beaches of the latter, in addition, there are what are known as "ronda roads", which runs along the coast. If you are near the capital of the province, a beautiful environment to enjoy hiking is the valley of Sant Daniel.

 

Many of these roads can also be done by bicycle. Although, without any doubt, the most convenient for this are the greenways. These old railway roads are perfect for getting to know the Pyrenees and the Costa Brava as a family. The more adventurous can enjoy these spectacular landscapes with the help of some of the mountain bike centers of the province.

On the other hand, if you move like a fish in the water, the activities in nature in Girona that you can not miss are those that take place in its rivers and beaches. Around the city, it is possible to go canyoning or kayak down the Ter river.

 

The Costa Brava is a world apart. In addition to all the possibilities for boat, windsurf or sailing routes; There are two really exciting options. One is the via ferrata of Cala del Molí, a path of vertigo right on the cliffs. The other is to dive in the Marine Reserve of the Medes Islands, and discover an unparalleled seabed.

 

Another equally interesting proposal is balloon flights. These are carried out mainly in the Ampurdán area and, again, in the Costa Brava. Although it is also possible to fly over the capital, and discover the urban fabric, the forests and riverbanks that surround the city, in a unique and unrepeatable way.

 

Fantastic are also the snowy landscapes that can be seen in the Pyrenees of Girona during the winter. Know them doing alpine skiing in one of its many stations; or the least practiced Nordic skiing at the Guils Fontanera station. Choose the modality you choose, good snow is promised and great views.

 

Ecotourism and adventure are completed with other proposals in the natural and protected areas of Girona. Take advantage of your visit to this spectacular province while contributing to the conservation of its environment and its natural heritage.
