Pyrenees-Barcelona Bike Tour
The adventure begins in the Cerdanya valley, one of the largest in Europe, and continues to Central Catalonia until reaching Barcelona, going through secondary roads that cross landscapes of great beauty.
The Mediterranean climate, excellent for cycling, and the many routes that can be done, make our territory a coveted destination for cyclists. This tour through Catalonia totals 310 km in 4 days (plus the first “easy ride” day) and brings together all the ingredients to enjoy great days on the bike. It runs along roads of very varied characteristics, in an environment of great natural and cultural value and with a great gastronomic richness.
