Itinerary follows the course of the Fluvià River from its source in the Garrotxa Pyrenees to Mediterranean Sea at the Bay of Roses. Cycle alongside the Fluvià River as it makes its way to the sea. The Fluvià River, used since ancient times as an trade route between the Pyrenees and the Mediterranean coastal towns, will be the axis of this route, which starts in the volcanic region of the Garrotxa and finishes in the Bay of Roses on the Mediterranean Sea.
Cycle along bike paths and local roads with little traffic through rolling hills and the Empordà plain. The itinerary contains a great variety of landscapes. You start in the mountains at an altitude above 1500 meters, at the source of the Fluvià River, and descend into gentle rolling terrain. Once you pass the medieval town of Besalú, you leave behind the mountains of Garrotxa’s Pyrenees and come into the terraprim or gentle rolling hills that give way to the wide plain of Empordà. The Fluvià River valley remains predominantly rural and includes places of great historical value such as small Romanesque churches and medieval villages.
