Mountain biking

It is a route that follows the painful path of the Spanish Republican refugees who fled to France in 1939. More than just a walk through nature, it is a path of memory and reflection that crosses the Pyrenees and connects towns such as La Vajol, Le Perthus and Collioure, where the history of exile still resonates. It is an enriching experience from both a historical and natural point of view, ideal for those looking to connect with the past in a spectacular setting.

An Argentona

Mountain biking

This stretch between Molló, Espinavell, Coll Pregon, and La Presta, was part of the Republican exodus in February 1939 during the Retirada. As Francoist forces occupied Catalonia, thousands of people crossed the Pyrenees into France in extreme conditions, such as cold and snow, to flee Francoism. Coll Pregon, a mountain pass at 241 metres altitude, was one of the last crossings to freedom. This pass is now an Espai de Memòria to remember the suffering of Republican refugees during the end of the Spanish Civil War.
