Overview

The Grand Gravel Tour of Girona & Costa Brava begins in the beautiful city of Girona and takes you past many highlights of the Costa Brava and Empordà, one of the most stunning landscapes in Catalonia. Each day offers you breathtaking views. You’ll cycle through both the inland areas and along the coast, with the sea often just a few meters away. The landscape changes every few kilometers, ensuring you’re never bored. The great variety of landscapes, including medieval villages, small bays, and traditional fishing villages, makes this journey especially worthwhile! You’ll also cycle through the Cap de Creus National Park, the easternmost peninsula of Spain. Here, you’ll ride on beautiful gravel paths, directly along the Mediterranean Sea, and through the charming old fishing village of Cadaqués. This is a moderate route suitable for gravel bikers of average skill level.
