Luggage Allowance

Passengers may carry up to three pieces of luggage. The total weight must not exceed 25 kg, and the sum of the dimensions for all three items must be within 290 cm. This allows for standard suitcases and personal bags.

Storage Facilities

Trains feature overhead racks for small items and large luggage areas near the carriage doors for heavier suitcases. Security scans are required for all bags before boarding high-speed platforms.

Special Items

Folded bicycles and musical instruments are permitted if they fit within size limits. For non-folded bikes on regional trains, check specific carriage rules as space is limited to designated areas.

Barcelona to Girona Map

Plan your trip between Barcelona and Girona on the high-speed line. The route departs from Barcelona Sants, heading north through the Catalan countryside. The journey on the AVE or Avant lines is direct, while regional Media Distancia trains may stop at smaller municipalities like Granollers or Sant Celoni. The rail transport system in Spain connects these cities frequently, making it a primary link in the Mediterranean corridor.

Rail vs Bus vs Plane

Rail travel provides the fastest connection between the two city centers, avoiding the traffic of the AP-7 highway. Buses offer lower fares but take significantly longer. There are no direct commercial flights due to the short distance. The high-speed train remains the most time-efficient choice for this regional corridor.
