A video summary of our (my father and I) 5-day bike trip on the Pirinexus loop from the Pyrenees to the Costa Brava (NW Spain and a small portion of France) from May 6th to 10th, 2024. This is mixed terrain, well suited for a gravel bike. The difficulty can be altered by varying the amount of time to complete the loop. Here is a great website with more information about the Pirinexus loop (https://www.viesverdes.cat/en/pirinexus/), recommended routes (2,4 or 6 days) and stopping points. Also included is the gpx file for the loop. The downloadable route is almost a must as the signage varies in quality.
We used some different stopping points than the recommended and broke our tour into 5 days :
Day 1: Girona to Olat
Day 2: Olat to Mollo
Day 3: Mollo to Peralada
Day 4: Peralada to Llafrance
Day 5: Llafranc to Girona
