Route through the Montsant following the Camí dels Cartoixants and back through the vineyards between La Vilella Alta and Escaladei. All track with some strong ups and downs but easy enough. We have made it short, but it can be extended until Cabacés and then it is about 40 km.

Falset is the capital of the Priorat region and its wines. Thanks to its location and variety of services, it is the ideal point to start and end any bike route through the region and taste its typical products, especially wine.

The surroundings of the Serra del Montsant natural park are full of terraces of vineyards that nourish Priorat wines. The vines grow in a very particular terrain and environment and the landscape created with the exposed cliffs is charming.

A must stop to enjoy the views offered by the Guiamets marsh viewpoint in the Priorat region.

El Lloar (or Lloá, in Spanish) is a small town with just over 100 inhabitants. It is famous for its wines, which belong to the Priorat denomination of origin. You can stop to eat in their rest area or go to the bar or store to get supplies.

Falset is the capital of Priorat. It is located in a valley surrounded by mountains and in the very center of the Siurana river basin. The town has a castle built in the 12th century. Two queens were born in it: Eleonor of Cyprus and Margarita de Prades. From 1825 and for more than a century it was used as a prison. Currently, it houses the Museum of Falset and the region.

At the end of the 19th century, all of Catalonia suffered an economic downturn that coincided with an attack by the phylloxera insect, which killed the vineyards. This led to the depopulation of many towns. However, in this area, the decline was not as severe as in others thanks to the railway line, which played a fundamental role in the wine trade, as it quickly connected the consuming and producing areas, ensuring that the wine arrived at its destination in better condition.
