When adventure knocks on your door, it is time to open up. Halfway between Barcelona and Tarragona you can find "El Penedés", an historic land full of magical stopovers to enjoy alongside your friends and family. Vineyards, beaches, mountains and forests dot its landscape, favoured by thousands of tourists from all over the world who want to delight their senses thanks to its delicious local cuisine alongside the best wine and cava of the eastern end of the Iberian Peninsula. We invite you to know this region, its culture, inhabitants and rich heritage that will certainly amaze you.
The Penedes is divided into dozens of municipalities found in the counties of Alt Penedés, Baix Penedés, Anoia, Farrag, Baix Llobregat y Alt Camp. In each of these places, that dazzle on their own, you can travel back in time and visit old museums, castles and monasteries that shelter art and culture from the neighboring communities to our modern times.
This video was recorded at the Giró del Gorner winery. You can see more stopovers from the air on the YouTube channel of España Discovery.
