Exclusive Pyrenees Mountains Day Trip from Barcelona
Leave the city of Barcelona behind you as you travel North to visit the majestic Pyrenees Mountains.
Escape the city of Barcelona and take an intimate visit to one of the most prominent mountain ranges in the world. On this personalized day tour to the Pyrenees Mountains, you will get a chance to explore the breathtaking scenery and travel to the historic town of Vic. This small group tour from Barcelona begins with a comfortable and air-conditioned van ride to the ancient town of Vic. After a brief introduction to the highlights of Vic, tour the area on your own. Enjoy some free time to visit the Romanesque cathedral, marvel at the renaissance styled buildings, or relax in the beautiful market center for breakfast. Continue your adventure to the Pyrenees with a brief stop at Queralbs village. Tour the resident's traditional stone houses and take in the magnificent view of the mountain. Here you can see the Church of Sant Sadurni de Fustanya, so beautifully structured that legend claims it was constructed by fairies and witches. This village, at an altitude of 1,236 meters, is the last vehicle-accessible stop on your journey. From Queralbs, continue to the peak of this Pyrenees day trip. With only 6 kilometers to the top, take a rack railway to your final destination. Your guide will show you some hiking routes ranging from difficult to easy, according to your preference. Experience the beauty of nature and the picturesque views with plenty of time to spare. See Gryphon vultures, golden eagles, and marmots on a walk or try horseback riding, archery lessons, or boating. Hungry? Enjoy a traditional Catalan dish in one of the restaurants the Valley has to offer (at your own expense). Return to Barcelona after a day of fresh air and spectacular sights. This Pyrenees Mountains tour is a great way to explore the countryside outside Barcelona.
