If you are looking for different ways to hike or you are searching for new activities, we recommend Nordic walking. Straight from Scandinavia and inspired by the training of cross-country skiers, it is claimed to be sportier than regular walking. Equipped with sticks, walk along the hiking trails around Tossa de Mar.
If you want to discover this sport, choose Nordic walking courses and excursions from Lloret de Mar, a prime destination to practise this sport. Tossa de Mar is only about ten kilometres away from LLoret.
Before setting off on your hike, do not forget to equip yourself well! The Costa Brava’s sun can be very strong, especially in the summer! Therefore, do not leave without bottles of water and sunscreen.
