Reviews Summary
Visitors rave about the monumental beauty and accessibility of the Camí de Ronda, praising its stunning coastal views, numerous coves, and easy-to-navigate paths suitable for families and pets. The blend of nature, sea, and Mediterranean pines creates a truly enchanting experience.
"It is difficult to describe the beauty of a place like this. The coastal path of L'Escala is of absolute and monumental beauty... Almost all of it is Arran de Mar and with the best possible views... The numerous coves and corners that are bathed by the sea, also Mediterranean pines, seagulls, sparrows and flying animals that play with the beautiful Tramuntana and the day that the Three Wise Men of the East have given me. Much more than advisable, flat, easy and always well surrounded.❤️"

"All the corners of Catalonia are really beautiful, but this coastal path is the most incredible, if you like walking, nature, photography, and you are looking for a good place, this is definitely it, the beaches are beautiful, the path is very simple and clean, you pass between places with bars, bakeries in case you need a break, it is a great mix, I like photography and I think I took good shots, I recommend it to go with your family or with your pets.
A relaxed, very beautiful, and quiet place.
I fall more and more in love with this land."
