Cycling Catalonia: La Garrotxa Short Break

You will spend most of the overnights in Olot, at a comfortable rural hotel with a private swimming pool just a few steps away from one of the best restaurants in La Garrotxa. The perfect base for some excellent cycling. Then you follow the Via Verde, a converted railway cycling path, to reach Girona’s medieval town centre, with its impressive cathedral and colourful houses along the river. Going mostly on quiet country roads with less traffic with a limited elevation gain, the routes are accessible and suitable for beginner cyclists and family vacations.
