Get ready for an unforgettable adventure in the mountains of Catalonia.
Off.Grid // In.Motion begins and ends in Girona, with five immersive days based at a beautifully restored rural retreat tucked into the hills of La Garrotxa.
Think of this as a playground for grown-ups to ride together, eat well, and share the good stuff in life.
Each day, you can choose the ride that matches your energy: a long, rewarding route for those craving challenge, or a shorter, laid-back option perfect for savoring the scenery. No matter which option you choose, every ride lets you experience the beauty, culture, and quiet roads that make this region a cycling paradise.
Beyond the bike, every day features a hand-picked experience to elevate your stay, including: relaxation workshops, wine tastings, visits to charming mountain villages, and more. And on the final evening, the adventure concludes with a vibrant DJ-led closing celebration—the perfect way to toast the week with great music, great company, and unforgettable memories.
