You roll away from the city’s edge and the air changes — pine resin and damp earth replace exhaust and sea salt. The route climbs through Collserola Natural Park, a broad green rim above Barcelona where singletrack threads between stone walls, firs, and ancient farm tracks. In four hours the ride weaves past the Hermitage of Sant Medir, up to Tibidabo’s church and telecom tower, and through quieter ridgelines where views open to the city and Mediterranean beyond.
moderate.
3–4 hours.
Requires moderate fitness: regular cycling or cardio workouts will make climbs manageable and technical sections easier.
A mountain bike is provided (hardtail by default; dual suspension available at extra cost), though riders preferring their own bike may bring it.
Moderate fitness is needed — expect several sustained climbs and technical descents over 12–20 km and up to ~600 m elevation gain.
A pro mechanic accompanies the tour and carries common spares and tools for on‑route repairs; major failures may require returning on flatter tracks.
Take Barcelona Metro L3 toward Trinitat Nova and alight at Penitents, exiting at Anna Piferrer; the meeting point sits across the street at the park entrance.
Collserola’s tracks follow centuries‑old routes used for grazing and pilgrimage; Tibidabo’s Temple of the Sacred Heart dates to the early 20th century and crowns the park’s highest ridge.
Collserola is a protected peri‑urban park; stay on designated trails, avoid trampling vegetation and pack out waste to minimize impact.
