Overview of the stages and sub-sections of the GR92

View back to the Cap de Creus nature reserve (stage 3)

The total of 10 stages on which you can hike along the entire Costa Brava on the GR92 can be divided into three sections, at the beginning and end of which there are relatively good connections to public transport. So if you only have a week, you can skip the third and last section, for example, and get on the bus in Palamós at the end of stage 7. Short hikes for extended weekends are also quite possible.

The marking of the trail is excellent throughout: with the help of the many signs and the marking with red and white stripes, it is actually impossible to get lost. Additionally helpful is a smartphone app with GPS function and offline maps (e.g. the Viewranger app) in combination with the hiking routes available here as GPX file download (to the GPX file download).
