Beyond the City
Barcelona is one of the most exciting road cycling bases in Europe. Within minutes of leaving the city, the landscape transforms into a huge variety of riding environments — Mediterranean coastal roads, quiet mountain passes, vineyard valleys and legendary climbs ridden by local cyclists every weekend.
Hese tours are designed to take you beyond the urban scenery and into the real cycling culture of Catalonia.
Roads Loved by Local Cyclists
The routes explore some of the most iconic cycling areas in Barcelona and wider Catalonia, linking together smooth asphalt roads, natural parks, historic towns and hidden backroads that make this region a true playground for road riders.
From the forested climbs of Collserola and the coastal curves of Maresme, to the vineyard landscapes of Penedès and the wild limestone mountains of Garraf — every ride has its own personality and rhythm.
Epic Climbs & Unforgettable Landscapes
Some routes lead toward bucket-list climbs such as Montserrat, Sant Feliu de Codines or the epic high-mountain terrain of Montseny — places where the scenery becomes as memorable as the ride itself.
Each experience reveals a different face of Catalonia: sometimes beside the Mediterranean Sea, sometimes deep in the mountains, and sometimes through peaceful countryside where vineyards, farmhouses and small villages define the landscape.
