Catalonia self guided cycling holiday, Spain

Description of Catalonia self guided cycling holiday, Spain

This self guided cycling holiday in Catalonia reveals this region’s most beautiful landscapes and routes. Cycle along the ‘wild coast’, with its long, sandy beaches. Pedal inland through the Aiguamolls Nature Reserve, home to an array of seabirds and songbirds. Follow beautiful trails that offer long views into the Pyrenees and hop off your bike to explore Romanesque and gothic buildings, pretty medieval villages and the Greek and Roman ruins of Empuries. The wonderful food and drink local to this part of Spain is another treat so, after a day in the saddle, enjoy a hearty meal and delicious wine, produced by the vineyards you pass on your bike.

This self guided eight day holiday is designed with an itinerary, but you can tailor make it to your interests. Bikes are included and 24 hour local support included. Cycle routes are typically easy to moderate, involving around four hours’ cycling, but you are free to cut routes short and spend a day on the beach instead. There is also a free day factored in, for time relaxing on the coast or perhaps a visit to Dali’s house in Cadaqués or the Dali Museum in Figueres.

This holiday is perfect for families, couples and small groups. Luggage is transferred for you, with accommodation in family run country hotels. This region is only 40 minutes from Girona and thanks to the new AVANT (high speed rail link), it can be reached in just 53 minutes from Barcelona.
Note: The timescales on the cycle routes do not include breaks or visits to attractions.
