Penedès 360 by gravel bike

The Penedès color palette dresses up every season. Its green tones encompass vineyards, cypresses, pines, poplars, riverside reeds and endless crops. The perennial ochers spread between the earth and the stones that cement its towns, hermitages, farmhouses, wineries and castles. This Route takes you to explore the wonders of this region on its extensive gravel tracks.

The route begins and ends at the Vilafranca del Penedès train station and extends more than 160 kilometers that take you to visit humble Romanesque hermitages, the ancient castles of Penyafort and Castellet, beautiful towns with a medieval feel and wineries surrounded by a tapestry of vineyards where you can taste traditional cava. As if that were not enough, the majestic mountain of Montserrat appears on the horizon in many sections, giving the journey an unforgettable touch.

This itinerary is ideal in spring and autumn, and also on many winter days, thanks to the mild temperatures of Penedés and its numerous sunny days. Along the journey you pass through towns that have the tourist services you may need. Therefore, it is not necessary to carry too much luggage, but rather the desire to enjoy every pedal stroke through these lands of wine and sun.
