It's always a pleasure riding in Spain, whether off-road in the mountains or scratching in the twisties. Well maintained roads and thousands of corners that could have been designed just for sports bikes. A personal favourite: the N260 between Puigcerda and Ripoll. Basically a race track. But there are loads more like that.... :D

Ditto on that stretch of road. Simply Awesome!
I’ve lost count of the number of times that I’ve ridden it but it never disappoints.

I want to go to the Pyrenees now....!!!

Beautiful biking area, with perfect roads, lovely people, delicious food, great climate and so much more.

The Odessa park also has wonderful hiking. The famous GR11 passes right through there.

We camped further up, past the park, on the left but I think I’ll try your one next. Thanks.

It’s a lovely place and the Hotel Edelweiss is a bargain for €55 including breakfast

Spot on with this recommendation - though it did get a little over-policed a few years back, not heard so much of an issue in recent times.
