With over 600 growers and 99 registered wineries, Priorat has lots to offer to both curious first-time visitors and wine aficionados.

Fantastic week walking. Amazing scenery. Very much appreciated the insights brought by Claudia, our local guide. I would highly recommend this trip. Tip – keep the contents of your backpack to the essentials only.

Dottiegc about Walking Women on Tripadvisor

This was my first time with Walking Women and I have to say it was just great getting together with a bunch of like-minded women enjoying the walks, the scenery, the chats and of course the cream teas! Chrissie was a great host and walk leader. I will certainly be looking to 2020 for another walking holiday. Keep up the great work.

dep about Walking Women on Tripadvisor

From the little I have experienced on my holiday with WW, I can see people and places are carefully selected, and held to a high standard with prices that remain almost affordable for all; curated to make the guest at ease at all times wether in the intinerary of the walks or the destination hotel/B&B stay. As a solo traveler I’m only sorry I didnt discover it sooner 🙂

Gloria McHugh about Walking Women on 57hours

Lorraine Roberts is an excellent guide. She personally helped Walking Women develop the Priorat Wine and Walking tour and her passion and attention to detail really showed in the high quality of the trip. The whole trip was really terrific; from the experienced guide (Lorraine Roberts), to the beauty of the area, to the wine tastings that were exclusive and private, to the attention to detail from Walking Women in the planning stages, and the wonderful hiking trails that took us to the tops of ridges, along a river, through many vineyards and orchards……really top notch, and great value for the money!

Gladys Ann Marrone about Walking Women on 57hours

Walking Women, with our guide Lorraine, put together a phenomenal week-long walking and hiking adventure through the Priorat and Monsant wine regions in Spain. The week was well-thought out, included a variety of adventures, the accommodations were excellent, and everything was beyond my expectations. As with any trip, things come up, and Lorraine was able to pivot to make our trip extremely enjoyable and successful. I would absolutely join Walking Women on any trip! If you like wine, food, the outdoors, hiking, and meeting empowered women, this adventure is for you!
