Walking in Barcelona

Barcelona is two cities laid side by side: a Gothic old town of shadowed alleys and a nineteenth-century grid of wide, chamfered streets studded with Gaudí. Both are made for walking, and the beach is a short stroll from either.

Terrain. The old city, the Eixample and the seafront are flat. Park Güell, Montjuïc and Tibidabo are real hills; escalators help on the approach to Park Güell and public transport reaches all three.

Surfaces. Smooth paving in the Eixample and on the seafront; flagstones and some cobbles in the Ciutat Vella. Streets in the old town can be slippery when wet.
