Summer is an ideal time of year to treat yourself to a break. Take a deep breath, disconnect from the noise and reconnect with what really matters. There is a wealth of possibilities to take care of yourself on the Costa Brava and in the Girona Pyrenees.
When summer arrives, the body asks us to take a break, release tension and breathe more slowly. And there’s no better place to do this than in a landscape that invites you to listen to the silence. Among vineyards, by the sea or under the starry sky, the Costa Brava and the Girona Pyrenees offer five unique wellness experiences to enjoy the summer to the full.

Morning Barre: activate the day with elegance
We suggest starting the morning with energy and elegance, with Morning Barre, a mix of ballet, pilates and yoga, which can be practised near the sea or at the ClaB centre in Blanes. It’s perfect for toning the body, improving posture and waking up in harmony. The ideal activity for those looking for a gentle but effective activation before a day of discovery or relaxation.

Mindfulness as a family: breathing and growing together
Discovering calmness as a family can be a shared gift. In Llançà, the experience of Mindfulness as a family offered by Valérie Espinasse gives you the chance to practise mindfulness with your little ones. Sensory games, connecting with nature and breathing practices teach children and adults to slow down and enjoy the present. A space to create bonds and cultivate emotional balance in a welcoming and natural environment.

Renew your body and mind: wellness in the mountains
Arriving in the afternoon, in the heart of the Pyrenees mountains, in Ribes de Freser, an experience of total wellbeing is born. Renew body and mind at the hotel Resguard dels Vents, combining the new sauna overlooking the valley with a cold water dip in the outdoor pool. Its water circuit contributes to improved blood circulation, stimulates the immune system, helps eliminate toxins, relaxes muscles and releases endorphins, therefore it makes you feel better.

Night flight: music and silence among the clouds
Evenings are a completely different experience with a concert of Tibetan bowls, floating at almost two thousand metres above sea level. Can you picture it? The Meditative Concert in the Sky is a unique wellness experience, created by Vol de Coloms and Edgar Tarrés. It begins with a mindfulness session, to prepare body and mind, and culminates with a balloon flight over La Garrotxa while the sound of gongs, Tibetan bowls and harmonic chants spreads across the sky. The bay of Roses, the Girona Pyrenees and the light of dawn turn this moment into an unmissable inner journey.

Magical night under the stars: a romantic getaway with sea views
Finally, this romantic getaway is ideal for couples who want to enjoy a night in each other’s company.

Because in summer, taking care of yourself on the Costa Brava and in the Girona Pyrenees is a wellness holiday in itself, which will be filled with delightful sounds and shapes, and always at one with nature. Let yourself be carried away by the silence, the music, the movement and the energy of a territory that cares for your inner balance.
