Overview
Home to some of Spain’s most iconic cities and famous characters, Catalonia is a one of a kind destination. With a history as diverse as the territory and a cultural identity and language of its own, this Spanish community will delight and fascinate. Join us on a 12-day bicycle tour beginning in Girona, one of the most fought after towns in all of Spanish history. We’ll pedal east towards the rugged Costa Brava and through the rolling hills of the Emporda’ region – dotted with Roman ruins and medieval towns. Our journey continues through hidden fishing villages, quiet towns, and through wine country on our way to Figueres, Salvador Dali’s birthplace. We’ll cycle west towards the foothills of the Pyrenees through nature reserves and to ancient Roman spa towns before looping south. Our journey ends on a 10-mile bicycle path finishing in the heart of Barcelona.***If this sounds great but you don’t have time for the full 12 days, check out our 8-day Bicycling Catalonia’s Costa Brava itinerary which shortens this itinerary by 4 days.***

Keep in mind
We work hard to maintain consistency across all of our tours, but some trips have unique differences. Here are some things to keep in mind about this tour.
We work hard to maintain consistency across all of our tours, but some trips have unique differences. Here are some things to keep in mind about this tour.
- In Spain dinners are traditionally later in the evening. Though we try and arrange dinners together as early as possible, in Spain this means 8:00 to 8:30 p.m.
- We recommend not drinking the tap water in Girona. While tap water in Europe is generally safe to drink (see information about meals and drinks on tour), Girona is an old city with old pipes. We will provide bottled water on tour in the Girona area. If you arrive early, we recommend you drink bottled water also.

Great riding with excellent climbs and views. Coastal cities, especially Cadaqu?s, were worth the ride.

A beautiful immersion into cycling culture, we loved starting the tour in Girona, what a lovely place. A nice blend of challenging rides ( a couple of the climbs) and Catalonian culture
