Other ways to come and get around in the Mediterranean Pyrenees
For the bravest and most adventurous, there are other ways to come and get around in the Mediterranean Pyrenees: By bike via the EuroVélo8 and the Pirinexus or on foot via the coastal path and the E12 or the famous GR10.
And let's not forget the boat which remains an original mode of transport, but sometimes very practical.
