Overview

Begin your journey from the Eat Sleep Cycle Hub space in the centre of Girona before beginning your trip direction to the Pyrenees before making a C shape back into Girona. Across the 4 nights, tackle numerous colls, sweeping descents, scenic mountains tops and race through national parks. This is a less-known region for travellers, adding a greater sense of adventure and challenge to your exerience. Stay in historical, stone villages and visit the roman remains scattered across the region. The tour features our handpicked 4* hotels in each village destination. The first two hotels are situated in small alpine villages and provide excellent dining and spa services. Day 3 is a hotel a few kilometres from town, so we recommend having a good lunch in Tavertet before your arrival. The hotel has free access to the pool. In Girona, stay in a city centre hotel, situated just minutes from the old town. The tour includes breakfast each day at the hotels, ensuring riders are fueled well for each days ride. It is optional to add evening meals to your tour. Most of the hotels feature spa services, important for rejuvinating after a day in the saddle.
