Fully customized, step-by-step journeys to explore Catalonia in a different way.
We are thrilled to announce the launch of a project we have been working on for a long time: our new collection of gravel cycling journeys across Catalonia.
Over the years, we have spent countless hours exploring the region's backroads, gravel tracks and hidden landscapes. Along the way, one idea kept coming back to us: creating routes that would allow cyclists to experience Catalonia differently — away from busy roads and tourist crowds, at the pace of the bicycle and the adventure itself.
Today, we are proud to introduce three exceptional regions, each offering a unique riding experience and its own distinct personality.
Why Catalonia?
Catalonia is one of Europe's most remarkable gravel cycling destinations.
In just a few days, you can ride through medieval villages, renowned wine regions, Mediterranean coastlines, wild valleys, mountain lakes and spectacular Pyrenean landscapes.
Few destinations offer such a diversity of scenery, culture and riding experiences within a single region.
It is precisely this diversity that inspired us to create this new collection of gravel adventures.
Three regions, three adventures
Costa Daurada, Priorat & Terres de Lleida
From the Mediterranean to the plains of the Catalan interior.
This route connects the Mediterranean coast to the Ebro Delta, crosses the wild landscapes of the Els Ports Natural Park, the terraced vineyards of Priorat and the mountains of Prades before reaching the vast horizons of the Lleida lands.
An adventure marked by the diversity of landscapes and the richness of Catalan heritage.
Empordà & Costa Brava
Gravel riding paradise in the heart of medieval Catalonia.
Between stone villages, vineyards, cork oak forests and Mediterranean coves, this region offers an exceptional balance between culture, nature and the pleasure of driving.
An ideal itinerary for those wishing to discover one of the most emblematic regions of Catalonia.
Pre-Pyrenees & Catalan Pyrenees
Our wildest and most mountainous region.
From the plains of Lleida to the Pyrenean peaks, this route crosses the Ruta dels Llacs, Montsec, the Pallars valleys and some of the most beautiful mountain landscapes in Catalonia.
A spectacular adventure for lovers of wide open spaces, mountain passes and high-altitude panoramas.
Much more than just a GPS route
Our gravel trips are not simply downloadable routes.
Each itinerary has been designed as a true travel experience, with the same level of attention and personalization as all the trips we offer at Discover.
We believe that every traveler is different. Some want to drive every day. Others prefer to take their time, add a rest day, visit a village, go for a hike, discover a vineyard, or simply enjoy a place that inspires them more.
That's why all our trips are fully customizable.
Each itinerary can be adapted, shortened, extended or enriched with additional activities to create a trip that truly reflects you.
A Complete Turnkey Experience
We take care of every detail so you can focus on enjoying the adventure.
Depending on your needs, we arrange:
• Carefully selected accommodations
• Detailed GPS routes
• Luggage transfers between stages
• Gravel and e-bike rentals
• Required transfers
• Restaurant and activity recommendations
• Personalized travel advice before departure

Whether you are travelling alone, as a couple, with friends or as part of a private group, we can build a project tailored to your desires, your level and the time you have available.
