Not 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.
