Cycling day trips in Catalonia

All these tours we offer can be done with a guide, and also can be selfguided. Barcelona Hills Tour is recommended to be done with a guide because cycling in the city without a guide can be confusing and stressing. The other tours (Montserrat, Montseny, Costa Brava and Penedes) can be also guided, as the guide will make the ride more enjoyable and relaxing. We adapt each tour to the customer, in mileage and number of hills, depending on the wills of every customer.

Montserrat, destination for pilgrims
Montserrat, the holy mountain for Catalan people, one of the greatest touristic attractions of our country. And also a real challenge to climb up there. Do you know that climbing here to rengrace the black Virgin of Montserrat (La Moreneta) is a classic among the catalan people? Do you want to pray for anyone or anything? Then you are in the right place.
Being self guided or with a guide (recommended) the views of the mountain are spectacular! Surrounding the mountain you can see different shapes, the mountain changes. An incredible experience. Do not miss it!!!

Is there a paradise for cyclists? It should be not far from there. Visiting the factories of wine, the well known catalan cava, and remembering the old saga Falcon Crest... All in all, just minutes away from Barcelona! Come and join our Penedes cycling tour!

Montseny mountain is really close to Barcelona. You can reach it from the big city and also from the Barcelona north coast and also from the Costa Brava. The  highest elevation of Montseny is Turo de l'Home, at 1700 meters. One of the steepest roads in whole Catalonia, a real challenge for strong cyclists, if you are thinking of a cycling vacation. But no need to climb up to the top. You can reach Coll Formic or Santa Fe del Montseny. Solitaire roads climbing the mountain in which you can enjoy incredible landscapes, specially in autumn.
