We do this trip most weeks, in fact we have an inbound from Empuriabrava right now. I tend to route Guernsey-Santander but if you are coming from the French side you can fly all the way down the 100 mile beach and round the corner passed Bilbao and into Santander. Depending on where you head next depends on where you cross the mountains. Direct south from Santandar you will nee to be able to make at least 9,000ft. If you head round towards the Portuguese end there are lower crossings.

Empuria is a really nice field and very welcoming, we have an aircraft down there virtually all the time at the moment. The parking does get wet though in the the winter!

edit speeeling...
