Independent walking tour of the Priorat region
The walk took us from the Cisterican monastery of Poblet through the mountains of Prades and into the heart of the Priorat wine region. We stayed in small hotels, guesthouses and a rural Mas (farmhouse) with ecologically minded owners. We loved the region and the variety of scenery on our walk, as well as the genuinely friendly and hospitable locals along the way.

The walk took us from the Cisterican monastery of Poblet through the mountains of Prades and into the heart of the Priorat wine region. We stayed in small hotels, guesthouses and a rural Mas (farmhouse) with ecologically minded owners. We loved the region and the variety of scenery on our walk, as well as the genuinely friendly and hospitable locals along the way. The walk was challenging enough to feel worthwhile without being overwhelming or exhausting and there were often options for shortening the day if desired. We enjoyed varied Catalan cuisine along the way.
Rating for tour operator:
I had not used On Foot before and from start to finish I was impressed by the level of service. Debbie was very friendly when I rang to discuss the trip with her and she was helpful about arranging a change to the transport at the end. The package of maps, walking notes and information about the region was excellent; I have done similar walks with other companies and these were easily the best. Debbie rang before we left to check we had everything we needed and Joanna, who had written the notes, was available to us locally if needed. Our bags were moved on each day and everything went smoothly. I would certainly recommend this as an excellent holiday.
