Routes and hikes with dogs in Girona 

If your dog never seems to tire of walking, the Girona region offers trails where you can enjoy nature together. 

Discover the Girona Greenways 

The Girona Greenways follow former railway lines and other routes connecting inland landscapes with towns near the coast. 

They are a great option for walks with your dog, especially if you’re looking for accessible routes without steep gradients along many of their stretches. 

Discover the landscapes of La Garrotxa, El Gironès and El Baix Empordà while sharing the path with hikers and cyclists. 

Remember to keep your dog on a lead, respect other users and adapt the distance to your dog’s fitness level. 

Walk around Lake Banyoles 

Another option is to explore Lake Banyoles, one of the most iconic landscapes in the Girona region. 

The route around the lake, approximately 6.5 kilometres, offers views of the water, greenery and various observation points. 

It’s an ideal walk to take at your own pace, stopping to admire the scenery and enjoy a day outdoors. Remember to respect the rules of the natural area and restrictions on access to the water.

Charming villages to visit with your dog 

It’s not all about hiking! One of the best ways to discover Girona is to wander through the streets of its villages. 

In the Empordà region, you can stroll through the medieval centres of Peratallada, Monells, Pals or Madremanya, along cobbled streets, squares and corners steeped in history. 

If you prefer the coast, Cadaqués, Calella de Palafrugell, Llançà or Tossa de Mar are great places for a stroll and a taste of the Mediterranean atmosphere. 

Further inland, Besalú, Santa Pau, Beget or Castellfollit de la Roca await you with distinctive landscapes and architecture. 

Before visiting museums, monuments or other indoor attractions, check whether animals are allowed. That way, you can plan your day with peace of mind.
