Empordà Gravel Weekender

Ride through the vineyards of the Penedès region by bike and discover the history and handcraft of winemaking. Brunch and wine and cava tasting at a family owned bodega. Join a small group of 8 cyclists — an English speaking guide will accompany you. Bike and e-bike rental included. Prices can be adjusted for those coming with their own bike.

A Local Leader organised road cycling weekend with Tossa de Mar as base camp. Saturday rides the coastal road towards Sant Feliu de Guíxols with views of the Mediterranean; Sunday heads inland to the Pla de la Selva through quiet farming roads. Join a small group of 8 riders matched to your level — and enjoy a paella lunch at a local beachfront restaurant. Stay in a charming family-owned hotel by the sea. Road bike rentals available.

A 16 km morning trail run through the Serralada Litoral — the natural park above the Maresme coast that few Barcelona residents know in detail. Vineyards, pine forest, a Roman watchtower, and views to the Mediterranean. Moderate elevation (480 m+). Join a small group of runners matched to your level — back in Barcelona by bus by lunchtime.

A half-day morning walk along the Garraf coastal cliffs — white limestone, hidden coves, and Mediterranean scrub thirty minutes from Barcelona. 10 km, mostly flat with two short climbs. Join a small group matched to your walking pace — the kind of Saturday morning that makes you wonder why you don't do this every week.

A weekend in a stone farmhouse on the edge of the Montseny natural park — two days of guided yoga (morning and evening sessions), forest walks through the beech groves above Sant Celoni, and a deep quiet you will remember for a while. All levels. Join a small group of 12 — meals included, prepared with local produce from the Montseny valley.
