Our new independent cycling tour follows a loop around the broad Emporda plain, packed with stunning scenery and a wealth of fascinating historical and cultural discoveries that date back to Greek and Roman times.

Your holiday starts, and ends, at the pretty seafront town of Calella de Palafrugell. From here you head north along the coast - spectacular views across to the Iles Medes - until you reach the lush wine-growing area set beneath its stunning mountain backdrop. Your final stretch takes you on through the Emporda plain - peppered with peaceful mediaeval villages, historic castles, fortresses, church towers and sun-kissed squares, your only difficulty will be choosing where to stop for lunch!

The hotels on this holiday are as varied as the scenery, and include a family-run hotel built into the town's castle walls, a converted C15 mill, a Michelin-starred farmhouse with a lovely secluded swimming pool and a C14 castle with one of the most stunning sun terraces we've ever come across! We've included evening meals on 6 out of your 10 nights.

Please note that cycling helmets are a legal requirement in Spain. For safety reasons we are unable to provide these, therefore we strongly advise you to bring your own.
