How far is Cassà de la Selva from Barcelona, and is it worth the drive?

Name: 40+ Cork Activities in Cassà de la Selva
Start: 2026-06-12
End: 2026-06-14T23:59:59
Location: Cassà de la Selva

It's about 100km north, roughly 90 minutes by car depending on traffic. If your kids are old enough to sit through a drive and you're genuinely interested in cork production or want a day out of the city, yes. If you're looking for a quick outing, skip it. The fair itself runs all weekend, so you could make it a Saturday morning trip and be back by early afternoon.
