Why Barcelona?
The Barcelona area offers a range of settings for geography fieldwork unrivalled
in Europe. The city of Barcelona presents a fascinating case study of many of
the major themes of urban growth and development. Field studies in the unspoiled
National Parks that surround the city include coastal management, river
processes, dune ecosystems, limestone and volcanic landscapes. Fieldwork in Barcelona
Geology Field Studies
Field study sites ideal for geology teaching and
assessment are located very close to our accommodation base in Sitges and
some of the most spectacular geological formations in Europe are found within a
relatively short drive. These include the salt
mountain at Cardona and the three thousand dinosaur
fossil footprints at Fumanya. Geology
