Cycling vacations in Cambrils

Welcome to two-wheeled paradise! In one month, CambriBike arrives; it’s not just a sporting event, it’s the biggest cycling festival in Cambrils, transforming this Costa Daurada town into the epicenter of cycling passion.

With an inclusive and vibrant approach, the event unfolds a range of activities that embrace everything from the most demanding professionalism to the excitement of the little ones.

The adventure usually starts with the adrenaline of the Cambrils BTT Orígens .

Participants can choose from several routes (from 22 to 55 km) that wind through the inland landscapes, offering everything from relaxed walks to technical challenges with timed climbs for the most competitive.

But the diversity doesn’t stop there: the Gravel modality has gained a golden weight, allowing cyclists to explore mixed roads with that unique blend of speed and adventure.

For road cycling enthusiasts, the Bioracer Cambrils Road is the main event . This long-distance cycling tour challenges even the bravest riders with iconic mountain passes and spectacular views of the Mediterranean. It’s a moment where personal achievement and camaraderie come together under the finish line arch, always capped off with a hearty fideuà (a traditional paella) to recover energy.

However, the heart of CambriBike beats especially strong in Pinaret Park, transformed into a vibrant “Bike Expo.” Here, families take center stage. Children enjoy the Kids Cup, obstacle courses with ramps and skills challenges, and road safety workshops designed to train the cyclists of the future. There are also Bike Trial shows, where experts defy gravity, and Indoor Cycling sessions led by figures like Melcior Mauri, who energize everyone with music and stationary pedaling.

The perfect finale is the Bike Festival, a popular urban bike ride where costumes and classic bicycles fill the streets with joy. In short, CambriBike is a fluid and dynamic event that demonstrates that cycling is much more than a sport: it’s a lifestyle that unites generations, promotes sustainable tourism, and, above all, invites us to enjoy the outdoors with a smile. Let’s ride!

The cycling essence of Cambrils is summarized in the Bioracer Cambrils Road

If you’re looking for the ideal setting to devour kilometers on asphalt, Cambrils presents itself as the epicenter of cycling on the Costa Daurada.

Its strategic location, embraced by the Mediterranean and guarded by the inland mountains , offers a privileged ecosystem that allows you to enjoy cycling all year round.

Here, the terrain is a gift for the legs, allowing you to go from the sea breeze to demanding mountain passes in just a few minutes, all under a light that only the Tarragona coast knows how to provide.

In this unbeatable setting, the Bioracer Cambrils Road returns , a date marked on the calendar for Sunday, May 24.

Far from the mass marches, this event opts for a family-friendly and intimate format, limiting participation to around 700 cyclists to guarantee safety and enjoyment.

It’s a day designed to let you feel the road, with the support of a security detail from the Mossos d’Esquadra (Catalan police) and volunteers who watch over every intersection, allowing you to focus solely on pedaling.

Two challenges between the sea and Priorat

The event offers two routes that adapt to your fitness level and ambition.

The short 85-kilometer route offers a balanced journey with three easy climbs , ideal for those looking for an active morning without excesses.

On the other hand, the 125-kilometer option goes into the heart of Priorat , adding an extra loop that increases the challenge.

This route includes six mountain passes, among which the dreaded section known as No ploris nen stands out, an 11-kilometer climb with final ramps that reach 18 percent gradient.

Both routes run along quiet roads and through mountain landscapes amidst forests, offering spectacular views of the coast with the sea always in the background.

Participating in this march, integrated into the Circuit Català de Llarga Distància , also means enjoying premium services.

From a high-quality Bioracer jersey to a finisher’s medal that recognizes your effort, everything is designed to make the runner feel like the star.

Gastronomy and services in the goal

Upon crossing the finish line, the experience does not end, but rather transforms into a celebration of togetherness and recovery.

The organization offers gourmet refreshments with a fideuà , reflecting the gastronomic excellence of Cambrils, a city famous for its fish markets and its seafood cuisine.

In addition, you’ll have access to physiotherapy, mechanical services, and photography to ensure you have the perfect memories of your day. It’s the ultimate combination of sport, nature, and Mediterranean culture.

Registration remains open until all bib numbers are sold out or until one week before the event.

It is the perfect opportunity to experience an authentic weekend of cycle touring, breathing in the spirituality of the Priorat forests and always returning to the shelter of a destination that breathes the sea.

Cambrils awaits you with open arms and your bike ready.
