Pedal past the medieval Pont de Pedra in Girona, where our Old Railway Greenway E-Bike Escape begins with a sense of quiet adventure. The Collsacabra cliffs rise gently in the distance, their rugged silhouette softened by the sun as you ease onto your electric-assist bike. This half-day ride is designed for effortless exploration—no prior cycling experience needed, just an appetite for discovery. The wide, traffic-free surfaces of the old railway line and smooth tarmac paths make every mile feel like a breeze, with the electric motor flattening the gentle ascents through the cliffside terrain. The 27-kilometer route unfolds at a leisurely pace, ideal for riders seeking relaxation and scenery over exertion.

The journey takes you through the charming village of Corçà, where stone houses and winding lanes whisper stories of Catalonia’s past, then onto the iconic Rocacorba, a legendary climb for cyclists that your e-bike will handle with ease. Along the Old Railway Greenway, the landscape shifts between sun-dappled forests and open vistas, where the only sounds are the hum of your motor and the distant call of birds. A highlight of the ride is the coffee stop at Forn de la Vila, a cozy bakery where the aroma of freshly baked pastries and strong Catalan coffee provides the perfect mid-ride fuel. The route is dotted with viewpoints that offer breathtaking panoramas of the greenway and the surrounding hills—perfect for capturing the day’s memories.

Every detail of this fully supported ride is crafted for comfort and enjoyment. Whether you’re a beginner or simply prefer a more relaxed pace, the electric assist ensures that the 154 meters of elevation gain feel like a stroll in the countryside. The mix of tarmac and paved greenway surfaces provides stability and smooth rolling, while the absence of traffic lets you fully immerse in the natural beauty of Collsacabra. By the time you return to Girona, you’ll have experienced the thrill of cycling through some of Catalonia’s most picturesque landscapes, all without breaking a sweat.
