Overview
Dive into the cycling hub that Girona has become and indulge in its haute cuisine restaurants. Pedal through mountains and medieval villages until we reach the Costa Brava, following its rugged coastal geography, with spectacular cliffs and coves.

Mediterranean cuisine & Catalan culture
The depth and richness of the Catalan culture can only compete with the deliciousness of every meal. With a strong sense of identity that traces back to the Middle Ages, the Catalan character becomes apparent in every town and festivity. The region has blossomed in the last decades, after a long tradition of welcoming tourism. Creativity and an appreciation for beauty are deeply rooted in its very core.
The experience is elevated with every bite you take. In recent years, Catalan gastronomy and viticulture have begun to take their place among the greats in the world. Its Mediterranean heritage, European influence, and top-quality products have raised the level to the highest.
