Walk

What better than a planned stroll to discover a city and feel it fully? These walks lead to the essentials, and above all miss nothing unusual: a hidden courtyard, an inscription, a neighbourhood restaurant. Eight in Barcelona, three about an hour away by train, each with its map, its duration and its “Seen” boxes.
