Madremanya

Highlight • Settlement

Madremanya is a picturesque town with a medieval atmosphere that stands between cereal fields. Getting lost in its cobbled streets is a walk in time.

Mountain Pass

From Girona it's a little longer but easier, from Madremanya, shorter but harder. Can get busy with traffic, best first thing in the morning. Views, drinks, food and toilets at the top. Descending to Madremanya the road is super bumpy!

It was therefore not surprising that bike thermals were the order of the day on our route. Nice climbing again. At 19 degrees for the first time this year. Plus some sightseeing. Cool old town. According to the guidebook, a season of …

July 7, 2023,Girona -> Monells -> Girona

——
Just over one of the most popular climbs in Girona, Els Àngels, there is a small medieval town, Monells.
