No abla espagnolo, but it's not big deal.





ça vous dit de suivre mon itinéraire ?
A great road trip along the Spanish coast

A road trip that follows the Spanish coast and the Portuguese border is an exciting adventure that will allow you to discover the wonders of the Iberian Peninsula. The journey begins in France, where you will take the road to Spain.





vu depuis les jardins elle est encore plus atypique
Cathedral of Bourges

I recommend a stop at Bourges for its beautiful, truly majestic cathedral. The Central Massif is a spectacular mountainous region that offers stunning views of the surrounding landscapes. Passing through this region, you can discover picturesque towns like Aurillac and charming villages, as well as historic sites such as castles and medieval churches. Continuing the journey towards Spain, an obligatory stopover is obviously Carcassonne.

On entend souvent parler de cette ville en hiver la météo
Aurillac, which we often talk about in the weather forecast...

à voir une fois dans sa vie, au moins
Carcassonne and its famous citadel




L'architecture organique et le recyclage avant l'heure
Whether we like Gaudi or not, it is inextricably linked to Barcelona



Arriving in Spain, you will begin your journey along the coast, passing through Barcelona then Valencia, Alicante, picturesque coastal towns and villages such as Cartagena. You can enjoy the golden sandy beaches and crystal clear sea waters, as well as the local cuisine, famous for its fresh seafood and regional specialties.


Cette ville lui doit beaucoup et inversement
Gaudi is not ONLY the Sagrada Familia and. des. Buildings are also gardens


Cette ville devenue un important port de commerce a aussi et surtout beaucoup de charme
The Valencian sun is not just a legend



au mois de mai c'est juste paradisiaque
Alicante or the perfect postcard



magnifique, apaisante, cette ville est incroyable de sérénité
A city that explodes in your eyes : Granada



la nature et le génie humain uni
Ronda, I dreamed about it. since I was little, without knowing that this city really existed



mon plus bel été ? un hiver à Séville
Seville and its sweetness

Continuing your journey south, you can discover the historic cities of Granada, Ronda, Cádiz, Seville and Córdoba as well as the spectacular landscapes of the Sierra de Gredos and the Sierra de Guadarrama. Heading back along the Portuguese border, you can discover the historic cities of Toledo and Salamanca.


le soleil et sa gestion ont fait une ville superbe
Cordoba is not just made of leather




on a vu moins beau quand meme, c'est une superbe surprise
The Sierra de Guadarrama, quite far from the dusty desert we imagine



on imagine souvent le centre de l'Espagne comme un désert plat et sans vie
the Sierra de Gredos, far removed from the idea we have of central Spain



un château qui aurait eu sa place dans "La folie des grandeurs"
Ponferrada, a truly impressive castle



à Rome aussi d'ailleurs, c'est assez bizarre du coup, pourquoi tant. de chemin pour aller à Rome depuis Saint Jacques de Compostelle et inversement ???
All roads lead to Santiago de Compostela

On the way back, you will travel along the Atlantic coast, passing through towns and villages such as Ponferrada, Santiago de Compostela, Gijon, Bilbao and San Sebastián. You can enjoy the sandy beaches and crystal clear waters of the Atlantic Ocean, as well as the local cuisine, renowned for its fresh seafood and regional specialties.

Pour tous ceux qui pense que la Bretagne et/ou la Normandie sont les régions les plus arrosées de France métropolitaine, je vous rappelle que c'est le Pays basque la zone la plus humide....
Gijon, you wouldn't believe it, but it is one of the rainiest regions in Spain



oui il ne suffit pas de froisser une feuille de papier, un gobelet ou une canette d'aluminium pour appeler ça une oeuvre architecturale
Fortunately, Bilbao is not just the museum built by Frank Gehry



l'immense plage et ses rouleaux, c'est ça Saint Sebastien
Everyone who has seen Saint Sebastian remembers it this way



une ville. impériale, forcément c'est magestueux
Emblematic of Biarritz, but there are many others






























Sobald Sie die Grenze überquert haben, Once you have crossed the border, a stop in Biarritz is essential. Before continuing towards Lège Cap Ferret, then Cognac. A short walk on the port of La Rochelle, before leaving the coast towards Angers. After enjoying the famous Angevin sweetness, return home.


une jolie ville, dont beaucoup ignore l'existence
Cognac is not just a drink

si on évite la période touristique, ça a tellement de charme
The civilized nature of Cap Ferret



imaginez ce port envahi par la foule après la seconde victoire (consécutive en plus) du Stade Rochelais en Champions cup
A walk along the harbor in LA Rochelle is always nice (although it's less peaceful on the day of a rugby champion's cup win).
La Loire si magestueuse, dernière fleuve presque sauvage de France.
The famous Anjou sweetness












In conclusion, a road trip along the Spanish coast and the Portuguese border is an unforgettable experience that will allow you to discover the wonders of the Iberian Peninsula. You will enjoy the spectacular scenery, local cuisine and warm hospitality of the local people, while creating memories that will last a lifetime.


J'espère que ce petit road trip vous aura donné envie...
