Activities 

The Costa Brava has always been the most popular holiday area for Barcelonans getting out of the city.  Many have family homes here and the activity options are well established. 

Cycling: Easy routes and hill rides are signposted throughout the Baix Empordà. Cycling holidays can be arranged through S-CAPE holidays, based in Spain. Enjoy a 3 venue holiday in the rural villages of the Empordà region & along the Costa Brava coast. All transfer of luggage is pre-arranged as you cycle through the countryside. El Recés de Corçà is your first stop before moving onto Hotel Aatu, close to the medieval village of Perallada, finishing at the coastal location of Sant Pere Pescador.  For more details, www.s-cape.es  info@s-cape.es or telephone (0034) 985 846 455.  If you prefer a more leisurely ride, bike hire by the hour or day is available at ciclesJK in Torroella de Montgri www.ciclesjk.com  

Walking:  Corçà offers countryside walks to local villages, routes include easy walking & a steeper gradient woods walk. Most routes are well signposted & include "km".  The best coastal walks can be found along the cliffs close to Begur & Palafrugell; small, pretty coves are linked by a coastal path from Sa Riera south to Llafranc.  

Painting Holidays: For the artist in you, choose an intensive course or just a fun afternoon class. All materials can be supplied by your tutor. Take away your own impression of our medieval villages, countryside or coastlines. A range of packages can be booked through El Reces.

Horse Riding: Local stables at L'Estartit cater for novice and experienced riders. Lessons can be booked on an individual or group basis. Rides by the hour or excursions in the countryside, mountains or along the beaches. Hipica Mas Paguina (0034) 972 751 472
