There’s a not exhaustive list : each time you go to walk, think to take your camera and some water.

Itinerary n°2

Sea discovery with all blue shades

Time : 1h45mn(to go)

Distance : 4 km

Itinerary : Citadel’s Gate, maritim “ Croisette”, Punta beach, port, Palangrer’s beach, Poncella’s tip, lighthouse, Canyelles Petites beach, Almadrava beach.

Option : Castle of Trinitat Mirador Puig Rom wisigoth forteress

You walk from Citadel’s gate on the sea-side, to the north direction. You walk on Maritim “Croisette”,  on Punta beach, on Palangrer’s beach. It’s not fizzy. There’s a little slope leading up to the lighthouse. After Rosas’ lighthouse, (built in 1864 in the reign of Isabelle II, you’ll go down the stairs perfectly signed up which go on a marked out way between sea and stones. There’s a lot of stairs going to the road, but the way is now finished, (so you can avoid to take stairs as they say on www.roses.net ), to go to Canyelles Petites, a goldy sand beach with clear water. After going through the beach, you’ll go up the stairs to take a way on the coast, passing by Bonifaci rocky inlet and riding after 2 kilometers to Almadrava beach, a goldy sand area of 450 meters long, with blue turquoise water.

This walk is very easy, you’ve just some stairs, so don’t take a bike or a push-chair. Landscapes are exceptional. The first part of this way is in concrete and after Canyelles Petities, it’s ground. You should avoid to walk here with violent wind. Neverless, in summer, I recommend to go at 9-10 a.m in the morning. So, you don’t have sun and you’ve it in the back for return. If you need some water and sandwiches, you can buy some on the 2 beaches. If you want to come back by bus, consult hours for Gua-gua.

Itinerary n°5

Discover trees, a travel in giant trees land

Vue le long de la carrer Oslo		Vue le long de la carrer Olso: la Riera Ginjolers
La balade depuis le Mas Oliva commence à droite de ce panneau.
Oliviers, Mas Oliva

   Itinerary : Citadel’s gate, c/ Madrid, Plaça Pep Ventura, Mas Oliva road, c/ Oslo, c/Brusselles, c/Amsterdam, Grand Pin, Olivier millenaire.

You can start this walk directly from Oliva Mas and park your car Carrer Brusselles. Don’t forget to watch the landscapeon the right, Carrer Oslo. It’s so nice. The beginning of the ground way is not easy to find. I think it’s the continuation of Carrer Amsterdam.

I found it after some times but if you can’t find it, you’ll do a nice walk in garrigue.

This walk, where you can discover giant trees of Rosas begins in Mas Oliva. In first, you’ll take Oslo Street, then Brusselles Street. Go up to Amsterdam Street after crossing Viena Street. So, you’ll turn on the right and continue straight ahead by a ground waywich (after 50 m), rides in a junction. After 30 mn walk, the way on the left rides you in  “Grand Pin”, the highest of Catalonya. It’s so large than 3 persons are not enough to turn around it. However, if you choose to go straight ahead, direction Mas de L’Alseda, you’ve to walk than 25 mn to contemplate the “Olivier millenaire””, a symbol for the town.
