The route of Camino de Ronda® is a path made for walking along the ancient path in the seaside of the Costa Brava. The biggest part of the path of Camino de Ronda goes through narrow paths only adapted for trekkers on foot, with slopes, constant uphills and downhills, and some times even a bit tricky. In some occasions we also walk though sea promenades, beaches and flat stretches.
The above-mentioned, paired with the beauty of the landscape, flora and the abrupt geology of the Costa Brava, makes Camí de Ronda® an authentic paradise for hikers and trekkers. Unlike other similar routes, Camí de Ronda® is a route that can be done 365 days a year.
The Camí de Ronda can be followed with a relative conitnuity along the Costa Brava seaside, although as organizers, we recommend two concrete products:

The Camí de Ronda®, unlike other similar routes, can be performed during all times of the year without mishaps. During the spring you can enjoy a mild climate and a light and colorful landscape. In summer you can swim in crystalline waters of deep blue, in autumn you can see the ocher of the cliffs, and in winter you can enjoy the wild and untamed Costa Brava.
We recommend that you be careful with the preparation of your luggage and take what is strictly necessary for each season of the year. Think that the Camí de Ronda® is not a high mountain route but it is a physical activity that takes place in the natural environment.
It is for all this, that you only have to walk with essential and indispensable luggage. The rest of the luggage that you do not need while you make the route, from the organization we take care of moving it from hotel to hotel.
The accommodation offered by organizers of Camí de Ronda® belong to a range of typology and categories. You can book your room in hotels, B&B, hostels or rural houses. Each place has its features, but all of them have been previously validated to match the quality standards of our hikers, by having the choice to serve breakfast before 8am, offering a place to leave your hiking material, drying your shoes, the clothes and other details especially thought for the hiker.
