Cap de Creus Ancient Path

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Beautiful section of the route, for the most part running between dry stone walls, one senses that it must be a very old path

Viewpoint: Cala Jugadora

Highlight • Viewpoint

From this spot you get a fantastic view of Cala Jugadora, a cove in Cap de Creus. From this spot you can see down into the clear, crystal blue waters, surrounded by orange, gray, and white, vegetated rocks. You can either continue hiking along the trail, or take one of the spur trails down to the water. The spur trails are a little rocky, so just mind your footing as you head down to the beach.

The path is very demanding in large parts, sturdy shoes are absolutely necessary.

But it's still a beautiful hike with beautiful views of the coast. Arriving at Cap de Creus, the easternmost point of the Iberian Peninsula, we plan to have a …

On the road with the motorhome 🚐 and the four-legged friends 🦮🐕‍🦺. The first round started from Cadaques, which is on the northeastern coast of Spain 🇪🇸, to Cap Creus, where there is a lonely lighthouse. I've been to this region on my motorbike 🏍️ a few times.
