Cava underground in Sant Martí Sarroca

The Penedès can also be visited from inside a cava cellar: at a historic farmhouse in Sant Martí Sarroca, with its family chapel, you go down into a round underground cellar where the bottles rest. The Reserva visit (two hours, from 26 €) ends with a tasting of three reserva cavas with local cheese and charcuterie; the Premium visit (two and a half hours, from 46 €) adds a vineyard walk, a live hand disgorging and four gran reserva cavas with four cheeses.

Both run on a schedule: you choose the day and time when booking and pay by card.

Motor experiences in Sant Sadurní d'Anoia

Two motor experiences in Sant Sadurní d'Anoia, in the heart of the Alt Penedès, about 45 minutes from Barcelona: driving a 4x4 on a private trial circuit and a buggy route along the district's vineyard tracks.

Both leave from the same spot, on Carrer Masia Prunamala, and they are the active counterpart to an area people almost always visit for the wineries.

The circuit and the route, in detail

The 4x4 is driven on a closed circuit in a Nissan Patrol Extreme and needs no driving licence: 30-minute sessions for 97 €, 45 for 145 € and 60 for 169 €.

The buggy route runs on open tracks in a Polaris RZR 900: 1 hour for 188 €, 2 hours for 300 € and 3 hours for 375 €, per person and up to two per buggy. Here the driver does have to be over 35 and to have held a licence for two years; children can ride along as passengers from the age of 5.

Bought without a date

Both are sold as a voucher: you pay online, you get the code, and the centre agrees the day and time with you. It is the usual way to sell when a circuit works by groups rather than fixed timetables.

Because it is bought without a date, the voucher carries 14 days of withdrawal from the purchase, and the specific terms are written on each activity page before you pay.

Where to stay in the Penedès

Vilafranca del Penedès and Sant Sadurní d'Anoia are the two bases with the most accommodation, and both have Rodalies trains (R4) from Barcelona. To sleep among the vines, many of the area's farmhouses rent out rooms; from either town, Sant Martí Sarroca and Font-rubí are a short drive away.

Activitatum doesn't sell accommodation: this is only a guide to choosing an area.
