Excursion à vélo d’une journée de Sant Cugat del Vallès à Sarrià-Sant Gervasi

This ride takes you from the charming town of Sant Cugat del Vallès to the leafy, relaxed district of Sarrià-Sant Gervasi in Barcelona. Starting in Sant Cugat—famous for its beautiful Romanesque monastery and lively markets—you’ll enjoy mostly paved paths and cycleways as you wind your way towards the city. The route is just under 32 km, making it a manageable ride with enough distance to get the legs working but still very doable for a comfortable day out.

You’ll climb a gentle 212 meters and descend about the same, passing through green suburbs and getting great views of Collserola Natural Park along the way. Most of the journey is on smooth cycleways, so it’s pretty beginner-friendly. Once you reach Sarrià-Sant Gervasi, take a moment to explore its tranquil squares and grab a coffee at a local café—this area feels a world away from the busy city center. It’s the perfect urban escape!
