IS THIS TOUR FOR ME?
The Classic Climbs of Girona is designed for Advanced, Level 3 cyclists. The tour is accessible to Intermediate, Level 2 riders though using the support vehicle to shorten rides or choosing our Orbea M20 electric road bike. Guests are invited to take all climbs at their own pace. To best enjoy the tour riders should be comfortable riding 100 kms. Training for the tour is recommended – consider working with our in-house coach to best enjoy the week.
NON-RIDERS
This is a great tour for non-cycling partners or family to join. Girona is a beautiful city with a great cafe culture, shops & restaurants. The Dali Museum is a short train ride away in Figueres and the Catalan capital of Barcelona is just a 40 min train ride away. Why not rent an electric or brompton bicycle for a fun day out on the bike paths around Girona? Or relax in Girona’s Roman Spa. We’ll work with non-riders ahead of the tour to create their perfect holiday itinerary.
