Itinerary description

Descripció en anglès. Beginning of November. Friday. All Saints holiday. Rather slowly. Daylight from 7:15 to 18:00.
>>> This is planned to be part of a "Barcelona to Tarragona" route. All my tracks on this route will have names ending in "... BCN40A". I hope to continue this further south along the coast - with names "... BCN40B", "... BCN40C", "... BCN40D" - until I reach latitude 40ºN at Castelló de la Plana. In 2009/2010 I walked from latitude 30ºN to 40ºN combining three walks in India and Japon<<<
This track starts on GR92, but then leaves GR92 to include Sant Ramon hilltop sanctuary church cum restaurant. This is a viewpoint and also a landmark: you can see it from Creu d'Olèrdola viewpoint (previous track), from Garraf (next track) and from certain points of the airport (Terminal 1, sections A, C, E?). So, when you are at the airport, you can look back in remembrance to where you walked. The walk ends at Gavà train station (but the track ends about 1km before, due to empty battery). This is off GR92 and has more frequent public transport options than Bruguers on GR92, for example.
WAY POINTS (with photos):
10:30 Train station Sant Vicenç dels Horts (trains start at Barcelona's Plaça Espanya) - 11:55 Restaurant - 12:20 leave GR 92, left, up. View Sant Ramon (photo, right) from crossroads. - 13:20-15:00 Sant Ramon [four WP] - 16:05 left to Gavà.
Ca. 17:00 Gavà railway station.
