Camí de Ronda: A full‑day walk along the wild Costa Brava to medieval Tossa de Mar.

Outing Highlights
Camí de Ronda’s coastal panoramas
The route opens onto uninterrupted Mediterranean views: cliffs dropping to turquoise water and stretches of rocky shoreline that define the Costa Brava’s dramatic character.
Hidden coves and an opportunity to swim
Along the coastal path you’ll find small, transparent‑water coves where, weather permitting, the itinerary allows free time to swim, sunbathe and relax.
Tossa de Mar’s Vila Vella — a living medieval town
After the hike the day pivots to culture: the fortified Vila Vella, a 13th‑century medieval quarter still intact, invites exploration of narrow streets and defensive walls.

The hike threads sea‑facing cliffs and secret coves with time set aside for a restorative swim where conditions allow; afterward you return to Tossa de Mar for lunch and a guided stroll through the Vila Vella, its towers and alleys providing a historical counterpoint to the coastal walk.
