CYCLING

 

Biking through Costa Brava is absolutely gorgeous! You are out in country air and enjoy the fields, flowers and hillsides. Here are some bike routes for you to get acquainted with the area.

Here is a pdf of all the official trails marked by the tourism department! It’s a little tricky to make out on the map, but once out on the road, you will see bike “bread-crumb” stickers found on trees and sign posts that point you in the right direction. Fortunately, everything is nearby, and if you end up getting lost, you can always stop at one of the towns and enjoy a Fanta or Coke :).

If you’re looking to try out the longer rides, our at-home bikes won’t cut it. If you aren’t bringing your own, let us know and we’ll arrange road bikes for the group.

We haven’t been on this route, but it’s supposed to be absolutely beautiful. This would be a good route if you want to stop in Girona.
