    Waymarked Camino in Barcelona

    I think it was the GR96 the whole way up from the bottom - I’ve attached pics from the trailhead - the GR96 is the steeper option I think and yes was a very tough end to the day - I don’t believe any part of me was dry :) The Catalan and the inveirno have much tougher stages than the primitivo...

    We walked from the beach in Barceloneta through the city and up through San cugat to Terrassa - we stayed at an Airbnb run by Anna and Barto who are the nicest people you could meet - I highly recommend this option - they made us dinner and she got up to make us breakfast and a packed lunch -...
