Before continuing my journey on the Pirinexus Route, I visit the Dalí Theatre-Museum in Figueres in the morning. Within walking distance of the hotel, I arrive at the entrance portal in a few minutes. My ticket, originally booked for yesterday, is easily transferred to today, and I am soon standing in

I am particularly looking forward to the third stage of the Pirinexus Route, as it leads through one of the wildest sections of the entire route. Wisps of fog, remnants of yesterday's thunderstorm, soften the landscape around me as I gradually delve deeper into the high mountain scenery on the Route

The next morning greets me with a hazy sky, the sun peeking through the clouds here and there, and the mountains softly outlined against the mist-shrouded sky. On the second stage of the Pirinexus Cultural Heritage Route, I slowly cycle out of the hollow, or rather the volcanic crater, in which Olot

The first stage of the Pirinexus Cultural Heritage Route takes me from Girona through the foothills of the Pyrenees to Olot, a town in the heart of the Garrotxa volcanic landscape. But before we set off, I have an extensive breakfast at La Comuna, a legendary café in the Barri Vell. This is where Girona

The last and shortest stage of the Pirinexus Route begins with a visit to the excellent Hotel Bell Repòs in Platja d'Aro, where I am warmly welcomed by Sònia, the hotel owner. After an inspiring conversation about sustainability and a guided tour of the historic part of the building, I say goodbye to

After a restful night in the bivvy, I begin the third leg of my Pirineus adventure. Before I set off for the Costa Brava, I need a hearty breakfast. The night before, I remember seeing a small tobacco shop with the sign "Café-Bar" in the center of Capmany. The small shop turns out to be the hub for the

The next morning, the rain has eased. I pack my things and set out in search of a delicious breakfast. Today's stage will be demanding, with considerable elevation gain and rocky terrain. I leave Camprodon in 14 degrees Celsius and drizzle, but I'm confident that the sun will soon break through the clouds

My bikepacking tour on the Pirinexus Route between Spain and France starts and ends in Girona, a city that, like no other, has embraced cycling as a way of life. While preparing for my Pirinexus trip, I decide to make most of the journey there and back by bike. When I arrive in Girona, the annual flower

The Pirinexus route bids farewell to the Mediterranean coast on my fifth stage at Sant Feliu de Guíxols and leads back to Girona via the Greenway Carrilet II. On the final kilometers, the varied gravel passages offer a relaxed finale: the route runs almost without gradient through the open landscape
