Baix Empordà enjoys a mild mediterranean climate. The easy access, the natural beauty, the character of its people, the beaches, the importance of its historic and cultural heritage and the wide range of activities and services on offer make Baix Empordà the ideal place to spend a whole day or a long holiday. Here you can find a romanic church lost in the cork oak covered mountains, a remote cove with fine golden sand and sky blue sea, nights full of fun and partying or the rich, special gastronomy of the land.

nature parkNot so long ago, the fearsome pirates and privateers sailed across the Mediterranean in search of wealth and slaves to sell on the black market. Since the 16th century the Medes Islands have been the refuge of many pirate ships: from there they prepared their attacks on land.
This route will make you discover the trail that these stories have left us in this territory.
On the way, you will see the Medes Islands, the river Ter, the farms of the plain that built towers to prevent pirate attacks, and the nice town of Torroella de Montgrí.
A nice, easy and familiar route.
