Tour overview
DISCOVER THE CYCLING GEMS OF INLAND CATALONIA
This tour explores the asphalted country roads that snake through central Catalonia and high up into its magnificent mountains. This area is a Mecca for cyclists from all over the world and offers an endless list of legendary climbs such as Rasos de Peguera, Coll d’Estenalles, Capolat and of course, Montserrat.
There are many mysteries and legends associated with Montserrat, the sacred mountain. It is a pilgrimage site and a must-see destination for any cyclist visiting Catalonia. The “Moreneta”, the “Timbaler del Bruc”, UFO sightings, long and beautiful climbs… there is so much to discover about this unique natural wonder. The mountain has an imposing presence over the surrounding landscape and is visible for miles around. It will come as no surprise that the ascent is a frequent feature in La Vuelta a España and the Volta a Catalunya.
This group adventure features the most popular climbs in the area, including Rasos de Peguera (1,894 m.), a ski-resort in winter and quite the challenge. But never fear. A support vehicle will accompany you at all times and you can even take a Speaktracks Virtual Guide with you that will help you spot the most interesting sights along the way.
