Collsacabra by bicycle

DURATION: 2 days | LEVEL: | MODALITY: Cyclotourism / MTB

The Collsacabra route by bicycle crosses the Natural Areas of Guilleries – Savassona that make up a particularly attractive landscape. It is a vast territory covered with deep forests and high cliffs that support the high plateau of Collsacabra. The cliffs to the south produced by the Ter are occupied by the Sau and Susqueda reservoirs.

During the Collsacabra bike route, we will cycle on small local roads without traffic, mostly quiet tracks and some small stretches of trail. Along the route we will cross the Espai Natural de Guilleries Savassona from Sant Sadurní d’Osormort to the picturesque and lively village of Rupit where we will stay. Depending on the time of arrival in Rupit and the strength and desire to continue, we can stretch a little longer the route to the rich that will take us to Tavertet, with magnificent views of the area. A sea of forests that get lost towards the Montseny, with the Sau and Susqueda reservoirs under our wheels.

The next day we will cross the high cliffs of Collsacabra passing through enchanted landscapes such as, l’Agullola de Rupit with its legend of the defeated giant, the impressive waterfall of the Salt de Sallent or the high plateau that will take us to the Santuari del Far. From here we descend to the Vall d’en Bas crossing the dense beech forests of the Garrotxa.

We will stay in a hostel in Rupit in double rooms, where we will have dinner and breakfast included. For meals on Saturday and Sunday we will look for a bar en route where we can eat or get snacks.

The kilometers of the two stages, as well as the route on the map, are indicated in an approximate and provisional way. Depending on the composition of the group, we may adapt the route by adding some sections and more technical trails.
