Girona Costa Brava
Speakeasy Zone
Cycling
Blessed with a network of secondary asphalt farming roads as well as conveniently interconnected dirt roads, this zone features an archipelago of tiny villages and hamlets waiting to be discovered. It's E-bike and gravel bike heaven.
Cuisine
The birthplace of molecular cuisine at the hands of Ferran Adrià and a capital of avant garde gastronomy to this day, this zone benefits from proximity to the freshest seafood and some of Spain's finest quality beef and dairy products.
Culture
With numerous sites of ancient Iberian villages that predated the arrival of the Greeks, Phoenicians and Romans by 900 years, this zone also features an unparalleled medieval legacy from the tiniest of towns to the modern city of Girona.
Base Camp: Hostal d'Empúries
There's simply no better Costa Brava base camp than the Hostal Empúries near the beach town of L'Escala. With its privileged seafront location, renowned restaurant and relaxing spa, Hostal Empúries is the perfect starting point for Speakeasy rides of all description and degrees of difficulty. A throwback to the golden era of the Costa Brava, the rooms are tasteful and comfortable, and the decor is elegantly understated and authentic.
"I loved this trip and, as others have said, you went above and beyond on everything! So fun to remember all the special moments, and what a wonderful experience for all of us."
