Spain boasts an extensive road network, but certain stretches stand out for their scenic beauty. Catalonia is home to one such unique route, popularly known as the '365 Curves Road'.
This route, connecting the towns of Tossa de Mar (Selva) and Sant Feliu de Guíxols (Baix Empordà) in Girona, was built in 1920. Although the exact number of curves has not been verified, its winding path has earned it this popular name. Its 22 kilometers are adapted to the terrain's geography, crossing the Cadiretes massif, a natural reserve that combines mountainous and coastal environments.
The landscape is one of the main attractions of this road. The cliffs and Mediterranean vegetation offer panoramic sea views, inviting travelers to stop and admire the beauty of the Costa Brava coastline. The recommended starting point is Tossa de Mar Beach, with its medieval wall as a backdrop.
Along the route, several viewpoints beckon for a pause. The Mirador de Pola, located between Cala Bona and Cala Pola, is one of the most popular. Further on, the Mirador de Salionç offers a tranquil atmosphere with views of Cala Salionç, allowing visitors to admire how the road carves its way through the cliffs.
The route also hides paradisiacal coves, some of which are difficult to access. Cala Giverola, surrounded by hills and pine trees, is ideal for water activities such as snorkeling or diving. Cala Futadera, despite requiring a descent down long stairs, offers an almost deserted natural setting. For a more family-friendly and accessible option, Platja dels Canyerets, located midway, has amenities and is connected to Cala Canyet.
