Excursion à vélo d’une journée de l'Escala à Figueres

Hop on your bike and embark on a delightful ride from the cozy coastal town of l'Escala to the culturally rich city of Figueres. At just over 32 kilometers, this scenic route weaves through charming quiet roads and tracks, offering a serene escape with a touch of adventure.

Starting off in l'Escala, known for its beautiful beaches and ancient ruins of Empúries, you'll pedal past stunning Mediterranean landscapes. The ride gradually ascends, but don’t worry—it’s nothing too steep. With 51% of the journey on asphalt, your ride will be mostly smooth, although a section of gravel will keep things interesting and offer a bit of a rustic charm.

As you glide into Figueres, prepare to be amused by a splash of culture. This city is the birthplace of the eccentric Salvador Dalí, and his museum—the Dalí Theatre-Museum—is an absolute must-visit. With a total ride time of about 9 hours, assuming some leisure stops, it makes for a fantastic day trip combining nature and art. Remember to pack a picnic, as there are plenty of picturesque spots to take a break along the way!
