Overview of Pyrenees to the Mediterranean

A wonderful cycling holiday through Catalonia starting in Ripoll, a small town surrounded by mountains. On the way will ride our bikes through the Pyrenean foothills, valleys, mountainous landscapes, tunnels and amazing forests, as well as into gorgeous medieval villages and towns. Among the places you will visit you can find the monasteries of Ripoll and Sant Joan de les Abadesses.
