About Cycling in Catalonia

From the modernist wonders of Barcelona to medieval towns like Besalú and Girona, Catalonia offers a perfect balance of history, art, and natural beauty.

For cyclists, Catalonia is a destination that delivers a dynamic range of experiences. The region’s terrain caters to all skill levels, whether you’re looking for leisurely rides, moderate challenges, or steep, heart-pumping ascents.

The Costa Brava offers tranquil routes along its stunning coastline, passing golden beaches, hidden coves, and charming fishing villages like Tossa de Mar and Llafranc.

For those seeking a challenge, Catalonia’s mountainous interior is home to thrilling routes through the Pyrenees. This is where you can test your endurance with road bike challenges, where steep ascents, such as Els Àngels and the rugged terrain of Garrotxa, reward you with breathtaking views.

Inland, the Baix Empordà cycling network provides an accessible and scenic way to explore the rolling countryside, dotted with vineyards, sunflower fields, and quaint villages.

Girona, a hub for cycling enthusiasts, is a gateway to many of these adventures. Known for its cobbled streets, historic city walls, and vibrant cycling culture, it offers routes that radiate in all directions, from the serene coastal paths of the Costa Brava to the dramatic climbs of the Pyrenees!

Self-guided cycling through Andalucia was an amazing adventure! The detailed route notes guided me through dramatic landscapes, past olive groves, and into whitewashed villages like Ronda. I loved the flexibility to explore Granada’s Alhambra and other cultural highlights at my own pace. The accommodations were authentic and welcoming, and knowing my luggage was always waiting for me made it stress-free. The mix of scenic routes and cultural immersion made this trip unforgettable—I’d highly recommend it to independent cyclists!

I found this place with a simple Google search, and I never could’ve expected the custom experience I received. They provided options to help my husband and I hone in on exactly what we wanted to do for our honeymoon. We had perfectly curated GPS-lead rides all across the country, they booked all of our hotels, and planned all of our transportation. Every place that we went was so beautiful. I’m so grateful that we found this company to help us plan our honeymoon, couldn’t have asked for a better experience!

I was able to tailor a bike tour itinerary along the Adriatic coast that suited our group during the shoulder season. We added individual pre and post-trip activities which went smoothly. Our trip included stops in Italy, Slovenia and Croatia. The trip planner, guide and support team were great.

I would highly recommend anyone doing this tour take the e-bike option. There were only 3 of us on our tour who completed this on regular bikes. Four others who started out on regular bikes swapped over to e-bikes after the first day. The climbs are long and steep. There is pretty much only up or down, not much flat or undulating road. It is doable, but very challenging. If you are on an e-bike then this also helps with the group staying together and no-one having to wait too long for others to catch up. The bikes were really good and had great gearing that was capable of handling the steeper climbs. When we booked we were unaware that we would be riding in a group of 20plus at all time. Thankfully our group had prior group riding experience but we did observe other large groups with less than desirable riding behaviours.Others in our group were extremely understanding and supportive. Our guide, David, was very adamant about staying safe on the road. He was flexible with the itinerary and made changes to suit the weather conditions and to ensure we got in as much riding as possible. He was vey knowledgeable about Croatian history and agriculture and taught us lots about the country he is so passionate about. Our captain, Tolma, was also amazing and along with his awesome crew, made our cruise an enjoyable experience.

Highly recommend the bike trip from Bled to Pula. It was well planned. We did a small group self-supported. Big fun. Bikes, hotels, route selection and communication with the company was great.
