Trip Itinerary
Please note: routes are subject to change, based on various factors such as the weather, the group’s fitness and experience levels, and so on. But the following certainly gives a good guide of what to expect.
Day 1 - a relatively easy going warm up ride to loosen the legs, with two short and shallow climbs, with beautifully quiet roads and gorgeous mountain views. 50km, 450m.
Day 2 - today is the iconic “coast loop” - an absolute must for anyone visiting Girona by bike. Rolling countryside roads take you to the main climb of the day - Sant Grau, with spectacular views overlooking the Mediterranean Sea during the thrilling descent towards the famous coast road to Tossa de Mar. 95km, 1,150m.
Day 3 - another truly epic ride, Mare de Déu del Mont is (arguably) Girona’s most breathtaking climb. Clocking in at 18.7km, 954m, av. 5%, max 12%, with unmistakable switchbacks and spectacular 360 views at the top, this out and back beauty never fails to disappoint. We’ll ride back via Banyoles Lake, for a well deserved coffee and ice cream before rolling back to Girona. 120km, 1,800m.
Day 4 - Beautiful backroads is the theme of today’s ride, heading east into the Emporda region, with no shortage of charming mediaeval villages to enjoy along the way. 76km, 600m.
