After a short but crisp driveway, you will be rewarded for the effort with a magnificent view of Estartit and the coast. The view into the hinterland is fantastic !!

Roca Galera Singletrack Trails

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

There are many beautiful trails in this region, one of them. Unfortunately, there are also many thorns, so definitely choose a tire with high puncture protection and of course take replacement hose and repair kit.

The first of the holidays. The temperature change is radical!
A nice outing with a few stones and a nice beating sun.
But the beer on arrival erases all the aches!

Unfortunately there are no "right" trails, but on this tour I tried to approach all the short and longer trails that I know. Sometimes flowy in the forest with some sand but few rocky sections.

A beautiful tour from the Ballena Alegre campsite through pine forests to L'Estartit and back! Easily accessible by mountain bike, e-bike, and gravel bike, but not suitable for road bikes.

Beautiful, very varied gravel tour with great views, sandy beaches, historical points and even "burned" forests. Recommendation: only do it with a mountain bike!
