  OTHER ROUTES BY  BICYCLE


Beck Riudaura allows us to take the bike and go your way of deep beauty.
From the valley Riudaura a view of the volcano Montsacopa is very slow, and the houses of farmers and villages of the Eloi Ca, the Ca and the Coromina Andreu, to evoke the past.

Note: We do not recommend this route in rainy days because of the difficulty that would cross the stream Riudaura.
