catalunya offers really good options for people who like the mountains and the sea.
in the north you have the pyrenees with great hiking and skiing options and the mediteranian sea is there too for the water sports freks.
you also have some very attractive flatlands in catalunya that are fantastic for cycling holidays.
all in all a place i love to go when i feel like stretching my legs.

balloons in catalunya.

catalunya is also a place very suitable for ballooning because you have several valleys that are protected by mountains from strong winds.
i went on my first ballooning trip while in catalunya and it was just great.

Catalunia is beautiful. I've visited only Barcelona and Pineda. I missed Girona... Thanks Claus for sharing and bringing back memories! Cataballoonya is amusing.
