How to Get to Sant Sadurní d'Anoia from Barcelona

Sant Sadurní d'Anoia from Barcelona: the R4 Rodalies train from Sants or Plaça de Catalunya, the 2026 line closure, the cava cellars from the station, and when a tour is simpler.

Updated November 2026

Take Rodalies line R4. Sant Sadurní d’Anoia is a stop on it, and so are Barcelona-Sants and Barcelona-Plaça de Catalunya, so the train runs from the middle of Barcelona to the town of the Codorníu cellars and their neighbours (Rodalies de Catalunya line page, checked 12 November 2026). It suits a visit to one cellar. For a day at more than one winery, with the tastings and the transport arranged, a tour is simpler.

The R4, station by station

Rodalies de Catalunya runs the R4 from Sant Vicenç de Calders to Manresa, by Vilafranca del Penedès. Heading out of Barcelona towards Sant Sadurní d’Anoia, its stops are Barcelona-Plaça de Catalunya, Barcelona-Sants, L’Hospitalet de Llobregat, Cornellà, Sant Joan Despí, Sant Feliu de Llobregat, Molins de Rei, El Papiol, Castellbisbal, Martorell Central, Gelida and Sant Sadurní d’Anoia.

We do not print a journey time or a frequency here: Rodalies publishes both in its own timetable on rodalies.gencat.cat and in its app, and that is where to read them for your date. Its “Changes” page lists service updates and planned works line by line, and is worth a look on the morning you go.

The 2026 closure near Gelida

The R4 between Sant Sadurní d’Anoia and Martorell was closed from 20 January 2026, after an accident at Gelida, and reopened on Tuesday 7 April 2026, as Diari de Catalunya reported that day. Advice written while that stretch was closed may not hold for your trip.

From the station to the cellars

Sant Sadurní d’Anoia: the station, Freixenet and Codorníu. The points mark the cellars, not their doors.

Both houses are in Sant Sadurní d’Anoia. Freixenet gives its address as Carrer de Joan Sala 2, and Codorníu as Avinguda Jaume Codorníu. On the map, the first sits close to the station and the second further out, on the north side of town. Check the walk or a taxi with a map app before you go: the visits start at a fixed time.

That matters, because both visits sold on GetYourGuide start at the cellar and include no transport. Codorníu's guided visit with cava tastings has two reviews worth reading first: in September 2026 a visitor could not find a taxi to the cellars in time and missed the visit, and in September 2025 another had not realised how far from Barcelona the cellars are. Freixenet's cellars tour is on foot from the start, with stairs.

When the tour is the simpler day

If you want two wineries, cava and wine, and someone else driving, a tour beats the train. World Experience’s wine and cava day leaves Carrer de Martí i Franquès 21, in Les Corts, at 9:00 AM; a minibus takes about an hour to Pere Ventura Cava and Can Bas, where you get a 4x4 ride through the vines and a tasting of 3 wines and 4 cavas with cheese and charcuterie, and it brings you back to the same street. From US$144 an adult (checked November 2026), with no hotel pickup.

Powerd by GetYourGuide

If you would rather not get to Les Corts by 9:00 AM, Wino Tours' three-winery day picks you up within a 10-minute walk of your Barcelona hotel and includes lunch, for two people or more.
