Catalonia’s sun-dappled landscapes and medieval villages beckon on the 'Contrasts of Catalonia (Catalunya) Cycling' tour—a 5-day, self-guided bicycle trip crafted for travelers who relish culture, gentle exercise, and unspoiled scenery. Starting and ending in Calella De Palafrugell, you’ll traverse Girona, Platja De Pals, and the region’s most picturesque corners.
Pedal through ancient Peratallada, the ochre-toned streets of Pals, and fashionable Begur. The route delivers a delightful mix of rocky coastlines, crystal-clear coves, and tranquil fishing villages—many rarely touched by mass tourism. You’ll cycle gently through olive groves, peach orchards, pine forests, and along coastal paths, soaking up changing seasonal colors from spring’s blossom to summer’s golden fields.

The easy, mostly flat terrain makes it accessible and relaxing, with ample time to pause at inviting beaches or sample local Catalan cuisine. With accommodation, transport, and meals included, this trip is a seamless blend of discovery and leisure, perfect for those seeking a more authentic, slower-paced exploration of Catalonia.
