EDT Moià to Perpignan

Out of Perpignan you'll cross through farmland until starting to climb over the Pyrenees. The crossing is at a low pass with some interesting history and you'll find yourself into Spain.

Spain is the second most mountainous country in Europe, so expect very little flat riding until you hit the Atlantic Ocean. There is however a huge network of dirt roads so finding good trails becomes much easier.

There's a steep and high pass to cross to get to Olot, then a few kilometres of disused railway line, around two reservoirs and then through the town of Vic as you pickup parts of one of the Camino pilgrimage routes.

EDT Gratallops to Moià

North of Barcelona you'll pass the beautiful mountain of Mont Serrat, then ride through a series of valleys and along high ridges with sea views at points, and plenty of dirt roads.

Crossing through the town of Mont Blanc you're then into a series of big climbs and descents, intermixed with some easier riding to get into the high country of the eastern end of the Trans-Iberian Mountains.

EDT Aliaga to Gratallops

The terrain gets a bit wilder and the population more spread out as you make your way gradually higher into the emptiest area of Spain. Be prepared for drawn out climbing, loose surfaces and some amazing canyons and ridges to ride.

Stock up with food where you can as there's not much out here, but there's often water fountains in most populated places you'll pass through.
