Itinerary description

Saturday 2020Jan04. Planning 33km +/-0m, 8h. Details below. (En anglès, perquè espero que tingui continuació internacional.) *** This walk shall be continued with further walks. I will put "BCN20" in the titles of all walks of this series, meaning "from Barcelona, year 2020". Could be continued with "BCN21" etc. ***
!You could make this walk about 1 km shorter if you keep on the sea side of the railway instead of crossing it at km9.3! The section of my route behind the railway gives an impression of the Chinese stores typical for this place, and I wanted to eat a tasty Chinese noodle soup there.
