Road and gravel cycling base with a long spring-to-autumn planning window.
Planning brief
Base yourself around Girona old town. The guide currently covers 66 route ideas across 4 riding styles, with the strongest fit in Gravel.
Distances, climbing, costs and seasonality can change. Confirm the exact route, legal access, weather, transport and accommodation with current local sources.
Derived from each route's recorded surface, not from a bike review.
The archived BRouter files contain elevation values from a layer that is not cleared for commercial publication. The repair is to preserve the OSM-routed geometry, replace every elevation sample with NASADEM data, recalculate ascent and timing, and publish only after automated provenance and regression checks pass.
