Pals

Coastal village

Pals is a medieval town in Catalonia, northern Spain, a few kilometres from the sea in the heart of the Bay of Emporda on the Costa Brava. It lies on the C31 Palafrugell–L'Estartit road.

Read moreRead less

The GR 92 long distance footpath, which roughly follows the length of the Mediterranean coast of Spain, passes through the town. Pals lies on an inland stage of the path, between Torroella de Montgrí and Begur. To the north, towards Torroella, the path passes through Palau-sator, and to the south it heads directly to Begur.
