galaxy sport

Surely the great weather has something to do with it too, as well as the natural spaces like the beaches 💱 and mountains, and the wealth of associations it has. The fact is that Barcelona has always been linked to sport. 💱 There are hundred-year-old tennis, swimming, sailing and rambling clubs, and the 1992 Olympic Games was a major boost. The possibilities 💱 are endless: from walks in the woods of the Collserola mountain range, to running circuits that test your athletic prowess. 💱 In fact, there are even routes that let you get to know the city's old quarter while you run. And 💱 Barcelona certainly runs. It is a city known for its fun runs, like the Cursa de Bombers (firemen), the Cursa 💱 de la Dona (women), the Cursa de la Mercè (festival) and the Cursa dels Nassos (noses). It swims too. Barcelona's 💱 beaches are open all year round, and every neighbourhood has a swimming pool where you can do a few lengths 💱 under a roof. If you prefer to get to know the city from the sea, and go a little further, 💱 there are sailing, canoeing and kayaking courses. Skateboard lovers will find truly excellent skateparks and tracks where they can do 💱 this ultimate urban sport. And, of course, there is also the option of getting around the city in a healthy 💱 way, because Barcelona has a network of almost 200 km of bike lanes.

And that's not all. You can also enjoy 💱 sport in the city from the stands, at the many sports facilities in Barcelona used by its many sporting associations. 💱 You can even enjoy sport from a comfy cinema seat because every year the city holds BCN Sports Film, an 💱 international film festival dedicated to the world of sport.
