9 things to see and do

Description of distance of 2 to 3 hours by train or bus

There is so much more to Barcelona than the city itself. There are great day or weekend trips to the Catalan countryside and coastal areas that are full of overwhelming natural beauty and cultural activities to be enjoyed.

On this page I have listed what to do and see outside of Barcelona city and within 2 to 3 hours via public transport.

This list covers items that are on the edges of Catalunya like the Pyrenees mountains and northern Costa Brava. Each item has a list of nearby attractions when thinking about planning weekend trip or holidaying outside of the capital.
