This house is on Passeig de Gracia 43 - and the station for R2 Nord entrance is close by. Look for the Adif sign.

Description R2 / R2 Nord line

It's important to note that the R2 train without the word Nord in the name - does not go to Barcelona airport.

Timetable:
There are only two R2 Nord train departures per hour from the Passeig de Gracia station, so the R2 Nord train can take longer than the Aerobus airport buses or a Taxi or an airport private transfer - and the R2 Nord train only goes to T2 terminal at the airport. The travel time is 24 minutes from Passeig de Gracia station

It is not possible to walk between Barcelona airport terminals, but you can use free green shuttle terminal buses between terminals T1 and T2 which leave every 5 minutes
