This is a wonderful 9-day/8-night bicycle tour that includes cycling the 'Carrilet', the converted railway that runs for 135 km from Ripoll in the Pyrenees to Sant Feliu de Guixols on the Mediterranean Sea. The riding starts in the mountain town of Ripoll, cycling the 'Ruta del Ferro' to the village of Sant Joan de les Abadesses. Gliding through the town and over the magnificent mountain pass of the 'Col de Santigosa', you'll descend into Olot, the capital of the volcanic region of 'La Garrotxa'. The itinerary then heads north along the breathtaking Costa Brava coastline, exploring its many treasures. The last two days of the tour are spent following the Baix Emporda Cycling Network routes that head inland through the timeless medieval villages of the region. Your cycling route takes you to the village of Pubol, where Salvador Dali’s 'Castle Museum' is located with many of his great works on display.
