Epic, life-changing adventure. I cannot say enough how much I got out of this incredible journey. The riding was beautiful. It was challenging yet at the same time there were always options to stop and rest on the van if one needed to. The guides were TOTALLY PROFESSIONAL and DELIGHTFUL and added a dimension to the trip that I couldn't have predicted. My fellow riders became friends for life. The food and the culture were incredible.

Trip Inclusions

Additional Details

Know Before You Go!

We want you to be fully prepared for your cycling vacation of a lifetime. This involves making sure that you choose the appropriate trip for you and that every aspect of your experience is flawless. Each Trek Travel trip is unique to ensure maximum enjoyment every time.

Your Trip Need to Knows:

  • Ride Camp is a mix of a guided and self-guided tour, focused on building base miles for your cycling season or for a big event. As a result, these trips concentrate on the physical dimension and not on the sightseeing incorporated into our other vacations. We also assume that guests are more self-sufficient than our “all-inclusive” style trips.
  • Trek Travel Ride Camps are designed for larger groups of up to 30 riders.
  • While traffic is minimal in and around Girona, there are sections outside of the old town where cyclists need to be comfortable riding with traffic.
  • When it comes to Spanish cuisine, it’s important to keep in mind that dinners are served late, with reservations beginning at 8:00 PM. But don’t let that discourage you! This is all part of the experience and it only adds to the charm of dining in Spain. Embrace the culture, savor each bite, and enjoy the flavors that make Catalan cuisine so amazing!
