Stay : Peregrinations in Alt Empordà
L'Alt Empordà is the beautiful region you enter by crossing the French border. Famous for its beaches and heavenly coves, the region has much more to offer: superb nature between the Pyrenees and the Mediterranean, a modernist heritage from Figueres to the Roman citadel of Empúries, not to mention creative gastronomy and a well-honed sense of partying.
