Stop and stay for hikers
"The smell of wine accompanies the traveler, both in the vineyards and in the villages, as he passes by the wineries", wrote Espinàs in his book El Priorato: 100 kilometers on foot. In our region you can take walks with the family, travel mining and farming paths, enjoy a historical and cultural itinerary around La Cartoixa d'Escaladei, make endless routes through the Serra de Llaberia, travel to princesses and warriors’ worlds in Siurana, sleep in mountain refuges following the GR-174 or access the Montsant through its grades. The diversity of options for hiking lovers through the Priorat are endless and diverse, but they all have this aftertaste of wine and liqueur that makes our region unique.
The Priorat invites you to take a break, to enjoy it without haste and without crowds. And one of the practices that most matches this way of doing things is hiking. Walk, step by step, contemplate the landscape, stop to rest in the shade, take a sip of water, eat a few nuts and move on. Walking is instinctive, it is essential, like breathing, so it has something to do with meditation, as in that it take yourself wherever you want. It is a way to connect with the territory beyond haste and purpose. And the Priorat offers the ideal setting to do so. Walk letting yourself be carried away, now that the harvest is about to begin, by the aroma of grapes, by the activity of the harvest, by the tiny villages that make up the Priorat and appear out of nowhere in the middle of your route, through the Montsant Natural Park and the Serra de Llaberia.
If you like walking, this is a good summer to discover the Priorat on foot and to stop and stay in the Hostal Sport, an establishment that has always welcomed walkers from all over who have come to our house to rest, to reward the effort with a good fork and knife breakfast, to taste a good stew or to stop for a Falset vermouth and a good Priorat wine. This summer, escape for a couple of days to discover the Priorat on foot with friends, family or the hiking center.
Oh, and if you finish your walking route at the Hostal Sport and you stay for breakfast or lunch, we will invite you to a complimentary glass of wine!
