Roads are also for bikes

You can go out with your family to ride the network of bike paths and greenways that link many Catalan municipalities. They travel through extraordinary natural surroundings. You can ride around peacefully and without rushing in the Delta de l'Ebre, the Vall Fosca, Collserola or among the volcanoes of La Garrotxa.

Cycling for everyone
The love of biking knows no bounds. On a hand bike, for example, you can explore the Terra Alta or Girona greenways. Catalonia, the land of great cyclists and magnificent mountain passes, gives you roads, paths and greenways for a bicycle excursion for all levels.

Catalonia, a tradition of cycling
For decades, the hundreds of cycle touring associations in the country have been creating space in the Catalan local road network. On weekends, the curviest roads and those with steep hills are the perfect place for bike-lovers to cruise around with friends for the sheer pleasure of the sport. The most famous peaks, such as Turó de l'Home, Coll del Pradell and Coll de Collfred, are some of the goals for the mountaineering cyclists. On the Costa Brava, the Costa Daurada or Costa Barcelona there are equally beautiful routes for groups looking for a flatter ride. There is a reward halfway through: a good pa amb tomàquet (bread with tomato) with sausage in some of the traditional roadside restaurants.

Mountain Biking Routes
In Catalonia we have a pleasant climate, varied scenery, sea and mountains ... so there are ascents and descents of varying levels of difficulty that inspire mountain bikers. They are all-terrain routes you can do all year round. Altogether, there are more than 6,400 km of marked routes that are classified according to their level of difficulty. In the mountain bike centres you will find all the information about your journey, bike rentals if you don't have one, and showers to clean up when you're done.
