LUXURY WALKING HOLIDAYS IN CATALONIA
LUXURY WALKING HOLIDAYS IN CATALONIA
Luxury walking holidays on the Costa Brava and in the Catalan Pyrenees, hosted by someone who lives on the trail. I design the route, book the hotels, move your luggage and stay with you throughout — so you walk at your own pace with nothing to organise and nothing to carry.
Small private groups, boutique hotels with real character, and days shaped around what you actually want to see. Whether that's the coast path from cove to cove, the medieval villages of the Empordà, or the high valleys of the Pyrenees, every route has been walked personally.
Walking holidays on the Costa Brava and in the Catalan Pyrenees
Here's what a week with us looks like:
The Camí de Ronda — the old fishermen's and smugglers' path that threads the whole Costa Brava, from clifftop pine forest down to coves you'll want to swim in.
Medieval villages of the Empordà — Peratallada, Pals and Begur, stone streets largely unchanged and mostly empty once the day-trippers have gone.
The Catalan Pyrenees — high valleys, the Vall de Núria rack railway and real altitude, an hour and a half inland from the coast.
Hotels worth the journey — small, family-run and beautifully placed, from coastal boltholes to restored masies in the hills.
Swimming as you walk — hidden coves at the bottom of the path, warm water from May into October, and nobody else on the sand.
Food you plan a day around — langoustines and sea urchin on the harbour, long lunches inland, and the wineries of the Empordà behind them.
Every route here has been walked personally. I'll shape the week around your group — longer days for those who want them, shorter for those who don't — and handle everything in between.

What sets One Life Hike It apart on the Costa Brava
I live here. That's the whole of it. The Camí de Ronda runs along the coast below my door, and I've walked every stretch of it — not once for research, but for years. Every hotel on these itineraries I've stayed in, every restaurant I've eaten at, every route I've tested in bad weather as well as good.
That matters when something goes wrong. A closed path, a storm, a hotel that lets you down — I'm forty minutes away rather than in an office in another country.
Most operators treat the Costa Brava as one page in a catalogue of fifty destinations. I treat it as home.
