Practice your favorite activity in the Mediterranean Pyrenees…

Our territory is crossed by 2 European routes allowing the practice of roaming:
THEEuroVelo8, the Mediterranean Cycle Route, connects Athens to Cadiz and the Pirinexus, cross-border loop to discover the two Catalonias.

The Loops of the Albères

Les Boucles des Albères means alternating between nature and heritage. These routes make it possible to discover the riches of our territory, in soft mobility. They are accessible to all and mainly take secondary roads, less frequented, to ensure greater safety.
