4 day cycle
A cycling route starting in Sant Joan de Mollet, Catalonia, Spain.
Overview
About this route
Divided in the following days
- Flaca - Peratallada (visiting medival villages) 35 km some options are:
Can be made 10km longer by going from Pubol to Foixa, Rupia and then onto Corça.
Can also be reduced by 10km by going directly to Peratallada from Vulpellac (skipping Ullastret and Palau-sator).
Could add a trip to Pals and back (around 10km round trip)
- Peratallada - Castello d'Empuries (along the coast - some rough tracks) 55km/90 total. St Marti d'Empuries is a good spot for lunch.
The first strech directly north from Peratallada gives you an idea of what awaits between L'Estartit and L'Escala. Alternativly go via Bellcaire d'Emporda to Albons.
Some alternative routes through the natural park of Aiguamolls are available to avoid the main road between St. Pere Pescador and Castello d'Empuries
- Castello d'Empuries - Cadaques (visiting Cap de Creus lighthouse in the national park) 45 km/135 total
The first part to Palau-Saverdera is via a little used road but the rest of trip to Cadaques can be quite busy.
The climb to Cadaques is 3-4 km long (eases off at km 7 of the GI-614)
Suggested timing is to have lunch in Cadaques and use the afternoon for the trip to the lighthouse.
- Cadaques - Figueres 45 km/180 total
Climb from Cadaques can be challenging but the road to Port de la Selva is a long relaxing descent
Rather than go into Llanca and onto Vilajuiga an alternative is to take the road up to St Pere de Rodes (avoids the busy N-260 but is a steep 400m/5km climb). Both options are around 14km from Port de la Selva to the N-260/C-252 intersection.
Peralada makes a good late lunch stop or from Garriguella we can add about 12 km by heading first to Vilamaniscle and Rabos before reaching Peralada and onto Figueres via the backroads.
