This round-shaped massif is characterized by well-maintained forest tracks that wind through serene landscapes, offering an unparalleled exploration for cycling enthusiasts and nature lovers alike. Starting from Girona, participants will begin their journey along the northern edge of Las Gavarres, tracing a route parallel to the Ter river. The path is lined with towering poplar trees, creating a picturesque backdrop as you pedal through this tranquil setting.

The route then ventures further away from urban areas, allowing riders to experience the peaceful solitude of Las Gavarres' remote corners. Continuing westward, you'll pass near historical landmarks such as Àngels sanctuary and Sant Miquel castle, adding cultural richness to your adventure. The final stretch leads back into Girona via the picturesque Sant Daniel valley, accompanied by the soothing sound of the Galligants river. With no signs along the way, GPS navigation is essential for this self-guided journey through nature's untouched beauty. This event promises an unforgettable blend of physical challenge and natural splendor in one of Catalonia’s most captivating regions.
