Event Series: Leisurely Walk – Petit Tren Route – Palafrugell

Leisurely Walk – Petit Tren Route – Palafrugell

Thursday, 29 January @ 10:30 - 15:30

This walk takes advantage of the old railway line between Palamós and Girona, sections of which have now been converted into well-maintained and flat walking/cycling tracks through pleasant countryside. The route will concentrate on the tracks on the fringes of Palafrugell in the area behind the Tramuntana Garden Centre and Palafrugell Tennis Club.

The length of the walk will be 4/5 km but with the opportunity to reduce the distance for those with walking difficulties and/or to take advantage of the seating available in the newly developed park facility in the area.

This event also includes the chance to appreciate the excellent cuisine at the Cap Roig Cookery School which has, in the past, proved very popular with members offering excellent standards for a very reasonable price. The menu is a fixed one, prepared by the catering students and shown in the photo above. Vegetarian options are available on request.

REGISTRATIONS ARE REQUIRED BY MONDAY, JANUARY 19TH AT THE LATEST IN ORDER TO CONFIRM THE RESTAURANT BOOKING
