Join us from Friday 24th to Monday 27th October 2025 to explore the European capital of gravel cycling. The packed itinerary includes a ride the day of arrival plus two long 100km gravel rides so you can max out your weekend on Girona's champagne gravel. 

GRAVEL ITINERARY 

Check out our packed weekend itinerary for your gravel cycling weekend break in Girona. 

Friday morning arrivals will get the chance to enjoy a relaxed leg loosener gravel ride to Lake Banyoles to shake out the plane legs and check the bike over or adjust their hire bike. For guests already in Girona having completed the Struggle Girona Road Cycling Training Camp we can head out in the morning for an extended version of the Lake Banyoles ride.

Distance: 55km & 65km

Today is an awesome intro to Girona gravel cycling. We'll enjoy a variety of fast and flat agricultural gravel roads as we head east to the Costa Brava coast. We'll stop for speciality coffee and great food at Rustik cafe. We'll then get an intro to Girona gravel climbs as we make our way through the Montgrí Natural Park before dropping down and dipping our toes in the ocean. It's then a fast and flat ride through traditional Spanish villages along gravel trails. We'll enjoy the gentle climb through the Gavarres Massif Area of Natural Interest before descending back into Girona and flying down the Via Verda cycle way back to town.

Distance: 110km

Today we're heading South to the well-known Costa Brava town of Tossa der Mar. We'll enjoy a warm-up along the Via Verda. It's then a tough climb to reach the old church of Santa Susanna de Caulès perched on the hilltop. We'll descend down to Tossa der Mar for lunch overlooking the ocean. It's then a gradual gravel climb back out of the coast before we have a straight shoot home via fast gravel cycle paths. 

Distance: 100km

If you don't fancy travelling with your own gravel bike don't worry. We can arrange gravel bike hire for you (not included in the cost of the trip). 

SOCIAL & FRIENDLY 

We strive to create an inclusive, social gravel weekender in Girona, including a communal breakfast and dinner every day, post-ride drinks and social nights. We understand travelling solo can feel daunting. That's why we work hard to create a friendly atmosphere for social, like-minded cyclists.

For other arrival times we can arrange a private transfer for a small extra fee or you can take advantage of the plethora of large sized and inexpensive taxis right outside the airport. The hotel is just a 15 minute taxi ride away.
