Gastronomic Catalonia Spain Bike Tour

This 8 day/7 night bicycle tour of Spain, near to Girona, covers the Empordà interior and coast. It begins and ends at the foot of the Gavarres Mountains, a very nice area with its rolling relief and its picturesque medieval settlements. The route combines a rocky coastline, a soft countryside and a rural atmosphere. You reach the coast in the lovely village of Calella de Palafrugell, an antique fisherman’s village that still conserves its original charm with houses by the beach. This tour is outstanding for the quality, the charm and the high gastronomy of the selected lodgings which are all very charming in their typical stone/tile style decor.

The unspoiled beauty of land as well as the warmth and humor of the people are what make Connemara, the jewel of western Ireland the true emerald of the isle. During this bike tour you will discover such attractions as Kylemore Abbey, Ballynahinch Castle, and charming towns of Galway and Clifden. The riding is rural and couldn’t be more peaceful.
