MTB Adventure: Girona
Join us on a mountain bike adventure in Catalonia! During this 8 day trip we will introduce you to the most beautiful trails around Girona, enjoy the tastiest tapas and immerse yourself in Catalan culture. Discover the vast hills of Les Gavarres and the cliffs of Cap de Creus. This is Spain as you haven't seen it before!
From our comfortable hotel in Girona, our local guide will take us daily to find the most beautiful trails in the area. We will explore Les Gavarres in different places. In addition, we will ride one day in the popular trail park Santa Coloma de Farners and descend towards the sea during a trail ride around Cap de Creus .
The trails in this part of Spain are very diverse. From dense forests to open plains and steep sea cliffs. We provide just the right amount of flow, tech & fun! Many of the singletracks will have a rocky surface. This requires a little more of our technique but gives a giant adrenaline rush when you ride hard over it! Besides guiding, we will give useful tips & tricks throughout the week. That way you get even more out of your vacation!
In the afternoon and evening it's siesta time! We immerse ourselves in Catalan culture, enjoy the delicious food and visit the old town of Girona. Girona has plenty of tasty restaurants with delicious menus del dia. Let yourself be surprised! The accommodation is a comfortable 4-star hotel in Girona. There is space to hose down your bikes and store them safely. Should there be anything wrong with the bike, we have 7 days at the disposal of an experienced bike mechanic.

After the run we have a sumptuous lunch at a local restaurant with a delicious menu del dia.
