The Spanish side of the Pyrenees offers everything road cyclists are looking for: Exceptionally remote roads, strenuous mountain passes, a perfect scenery with beautiful lights and highlights such as the Mallos de Riglos. From the lovely town of Collioure on the Mediterranean coast, this road cycling trip crosses the Spanish Pyrenees and their provinces of Aragon and Catalunya and takes you in 9 days to Saint Jean de Luz in the French Basque country. The route is peppered with winding roads in the foothills of the Pyrenees as well as "real" puertos (cols), especially at the foot of the legendary Pyrenean peaks (Monte Perdido, Aneto, Puigmal,....). In contrast to the classic French Pyrenees Traversée, this crossing is a more accessible and slightly less challenging opportunity to discover the beauty of the Pyrenees. The landscapes are drier and rockier, the vegetation more mediterranean than in the French part; in the heart of the famous "Sierras", expect deep gorges and beautiful rocky crags to feast your eyes. On top of that, enjoy typical culinary delights and very good local cuisine after challenging days in the saddle.
Each day you choose one of two different routes with varying distances and altitude gain (2 and 3 wheels).
Itinerary start: Rendezvous with your tour leader and the group is on day 1 at 9am at Collioure SNCF railway station. On request we can book the previous nights accommodation for you in Collioure.
