Calonge offers several different ways to shape a stay: walking routes through vineyards, a guided walk with a historical focus, wine experiences and book culture. When planning your trip, it is worth deciding what you would most like to focus on. The routes appeal to those interested in landscapes, while Mas Eugeni and the Festa del Vi Nou offer different connections to wine. There is also an interpretation centre at Castell de Calonge and six bookshops with distinct profiles. This makes it easy to choose experiences according to your interests.

Routes with different focuses

The Tinar basin is presented as a walking route through vineyards. Agricultural conditions vary by season, and local trail conditions can also change. Check the latest situation before setting out. Another option is the “El Collet, Puigsesforques and Calonge Plain” route, which combines history and nature. The routes offer different highlights: vineyards at Tinar, history and nature on the route through El Collet and Puigsesforques.

The Camí de ronda is designated as a coastal walking route within the municipality. This adds a coastal focus to the other walking themes. An underwater trail is also designated at Ses Torretes, within the municipality. If you are considering this option, find out in advance about the specific access and equipment requirements.

History and Les Gavarres

A guided walk through the Vall dels Molins explains the history of its ice houses. This lets you combine a walk with a clear historical theme. This differs from routes whose descriptions mainly highlight vineyards, nature or a walk by the sea.

Castell de Calonge is home to the Castell de Calonge Espai Gavarres interpretation centre, which was officially inaugurated in November 2025. Check the current access arrangements before visiting. The castle is also part of the network of access points to Les Gavarres. The cork industry of Les Gavarres also shapes the regional context: it has influenced the identity of places such as Calonge. The cultural context therefore extends beyond the building itself.

Wine and book culture

Mas Eugeni winery offers a guided tour and wine tasting. The Festa del Vi Nou celebrates the first young wine of the year; the barrels are taken through the historic centre of Calonge to the castle. These offer different connections to wine: the winery tour and tasting, and the young wine and procession of barrels through the centre during the Festa.

Calonge, Poble de Llibres brings together six bookshops with distinct profiles. Book culture is therefore a point of interest in its own right, alongside wine and walking. If you plan your trip around your interests, literature, landscapes and local history can each provide a different focus. These options give you specific themes to explore without prescribing a set itinerary for your stay.
