Hotels in Vallès Oriental, Spain
Vallès Oriental is a region just north of Barcelona, nestled between the Mediterranean coast and the Montseny mountain range. Its Mediterranean climate brings warm summers (averaging 86°F / 30°C) perfect for hiking the ancient beech forests of Montseny Natural Park, and mild winters (around 50°F / 10°C) when you can explore the 11th-century Romanesque churches in Granollers without the crowds. The region is famous for its DO Alella wine vineyards-try a wine tour in winter when prices drop, or come in spring for the flower-filled trails of the Montnegre-Corredor Natural Park.
