Overview

On this Costa Brava electric bike tour, you cycle along the coast of Empordà or the Wild Coast as it is also aptly known, before veering inland towards the majestic Pyrenees mountain range. This is a region of diverse and haunting beauty. On the coast, dramatic cliffs plunge to the sea. Vibrant villages with colorful harbors hum with the traditional fishing culture and life. Pristine beaches are perfect for soaking in the sun and the sounds of the surf. Beyond the beaches, you have a mosaic of rice fields and great agricultural plains with the mountains etching the distance. The natural reserves of the wetlands offer a haven where birds rest during their remarkable migration between Europe and Africa. Different waves of history have brought varied conquerors leaving behind a multi-layered legacy: diverse culture, custom, and cuisine, enriching, your entire experience! This is a moderate e-bike tour with average daily distances between 23 and 46 miles (36 and 74 km). The use of an e-bike allows you to conquer the hilly terrain with ease.
