Itinerary
*This facility provides very customized tours for each individual guest. You can indicate to us the distance that you would like to cycle and what type of bike and terrain you prefer: mountain bike, standard trail bike, or road bike. There are over 100 routes from the door of the hotel to choose from!
Example of cycling itinerary:
Day 1: Arrival
After settling into your accommodations at Mas Pelegri, you will be fitted for a rental cycle or assisted in assembling your own bike. You will then have the opportunity to take a short ride through the Catalan countryside, past ancient stone villages and old farms with time to relax by the pool before dinner.Day 2: Ride & Dali's Museu De Teatre
The morning can begin with a ride through the beautiful rolling countryside of the Pla D'Estany (the land of the lake) visiting the villages and enjoying the fields of sunflowers or poppies (depending on the time of year). In the afternoon, after lunch, you can visit Dali's Museu de Teatre in Figueres.Day 3: Roman & Greek Ruins Bike Tour
Today you can enjoy the Sant Martí d'Empúries Beach loop which winds through the rolling countryside of the Pla D'Estany before reaching the beautiful small village of Sant Martí d'Empúries, with its sandy beach and the spectacular Greek and Roman ruins of Empuries. You can enjoy a dip in the sea after lunch and a visit to the ruins. This afternoon and evening can be spent in Girona with an opportunity to enjoy dinner here.Day 4: Dali Bike Tour
This is a beautiful bike ride around the area that influenced Dali's paintings, the Cap de Creus. This is where the Pyrenees descend to the sea with small islands along the coast. The cycling begins in the wine-growing area of the Alt Emporda with its rolling hills, olive, and wine groves. There is an opportunity to climb up to the 10 th century majestic Benedictine Monastery of St Pere de Rodes which overlooks the Cap de Creus Natural Park and the Mediterranean. Descending once again to the sea, you can visit Cadaques for lunch and visit Dali's home and studio in Port Lligat, once a small fisherman's hut. Dali was drawn here by the landscape, the light, and the isolation of the place.Day 5: Volcanic National Park & Local Markets
First on the agenda is a lovely descent down to the lake at Banyoles with a chance to visit its ancient market. As you wind your way up into the Volcanic National park, the route leads you through the ancient village of Santa Pau. These are dormant volcanoes, not extinct, although they have not erupted for 12,000 years. Another lovely descent will lead into Olot with the Pyrenees as a backdrop. Sant Joan les Fonts is on the agenda, followed by Castellfollit de la Roca, one of the smallest towns in Catalonia. The sight of the church and the houses high on the edge of the basalt precipice has become one of the most photographed and painted images in Catalonia; it is also however a magnificent natural viewpoint overlooking the valleys of the two rivers. Montagut and Tortella, small Pyrenean foothill villages, will be an interesting stop. You can also take a detour to the beautiful bridge and rock pools close to Montagut, giving you a chance to cool off. From Tortella you head to the beautiful medieval town of Besalu with its ancient right-angled bridge and sleepy stone-paved streets. Lunch could be in Besalu at a wonderful local restaurant.Day 6: Day Trip To Barcelona
There is the possibility for a day trip to Barcelona with the opportunity to visit the surreal Sagrada Familia, Parc Guell, and Passeig de Gracia with its interesting architecture. You will also get the chance to visit Las Ramblas, the food market, and other sites depending on your interests and the time available.Day 7: The Loop Of The Angels
This is a beautiful loop visiting the old town of Girona and includes climbing over Els Angels if you would like. Lunch can either be in Girona or up the top at the restaurant at the converted convent of Els Angels. You will then return to Mas Pelegri for relaxation.Day 8: Departure

Hotels & Bikes
You will be accommodated in Hotel Mas Pelegri, a 3-star ecological sports and boutique hotel set in 5 acres of Catalan countryside. The historic stone hotel has been refurbished with luxury and ecology in mind, with 17 bedrooms, all with their own private bathroom. Three of the rooms are suites with a sitting area. There are six new garden suites with an exterior BBQ kitchen area. Many guests are surprised to hear that Mas Pelegri is off-grid and has no connection to the municipal systems for electricity, water, and sewage. This small boutique hotel is equipped with PV electric solar panels. None of the sun’s energy is wasted. There is a large AC unit in the main building, and smaller AC units in the new garden suites, to keep the bedrooms comfortable (25°C indoor temps on average). In-season fruit and vegetables that are grown within the local area are featured and the hotel is committed to working with locals. They employ a local gardening company, local electricians, etc, and work with local activity companies, supporting a responsible rural economy. In 2021, the owners began offering classes in how to grow ecologically, forage, reduce your carbon footprint, reduce plastic usage, and live a healthier more sustainable life in tune with your natural environment.
