Where to rent a bike in Barcelona?

• Barcelona (Capital): if you are one of those people who want to know in depth all those corners of the city and don’t want to miss anything, we recommend you to go to Barceloneta and rent a bike to explore the capital with ease. Leaving from this point you can reach the famous Viewpoint of Colón, this great tribute to the discoverer that is located next to the port. You can continue the route and head to those places that, surely you have seen in photos many times, but that will leave you stunned once you have them in front of you. We are talking about the greatest works of Catalan architecture such as Mila House and Sagrada Familia, the wonders of Gaudi. Another place you can't miss is the famous Park Güell and its peculiar and colorful modernist architectural elements.

And if you want to live a dream experience and visit the city at night, we recommend you to rent a bike for the whole day to enjoy the show offered by the Magic Fountain of Montjuic with its illuminated waterfalls.

• Montserrat: about 37 miles (60 km) from the capital you will have the opportunity to make one of the best routes through natural environments and parks. We assure you that touring the Natural Park of Montserrat pressing the pedal is a unique experience, as you can immerse yourself in its trails and contemplate amazing green landscapes. In addition to the walk through the mountain that is part of the Camino de Santiago, you can visit the surrounding medieval villages, and of course, visit the impressive Romanesque monastery of Montserrat, the most important one in Catalonia.

• Sant Celoni: and if the previous route is not enough for you and you want to continue exploring the most spectacular natural landscapes of Barcelona, renting a bike in this town will allow you to explore the best of the Natural Park of Montseny. It seems to us a perfect option to go with children, since you have the possibility to choose electric vehicles that will facilitate your march and everything will run smoothly. The best thing about this place is that you will find plenty of routes perfectly signposted with greater or lesser difficulty, so you can spend hours and hours pressing the pedal without problem. In addition, being in a natural environment, you can stop at any time to regain strength and continue enjoying under the shade of one of the huge trees that surround you.

• Lavern: for lovers of good wine, we have something that you will love, because riding a bike through the Penedes region is an experience full of surprises. And one of the key stops is one of its wineries and the extensive fields of vineyards that will leave you completely amazed. Who would have thought that this adventure could become a real wine tourism experience? There is certainly nothing better to refill strength and keep pedaling than to do a small tasting of local cheeses and drink a glass of the best cava in the region.

What types of bicycles can be rented in Barcelona?

- Urban: this is the most traditional option and you will find it especially in the capital. Since a few years ago, you can take this type of vehicles without making your life difficult, since different collection points have been created throughout the city of what is known as "Bicing". It consists of making a rental through an app so that you can move without problem throughout the city. What this type of initiative seeks is to promote sustainable travel and avoid pollution, so it serves both for tourism and to use them in your day to day and help our ecosystem.

- Electric: we are sure you will love this, because it is the perfect option to be able to make longer routes without making too much effort. And you may wonder how you won’t need to make an effort if you have to pedal all the time because in the end, it can be a bit tiring. Well, because these vehicles have a small engine that allows them to have their own autonomy and make pedaling is easier. These types of cycles are perfect for longer road trips, for example, if you decide to go to Lavern and tour the surrounding vineyards, or if you want to spend a whole day sightseeing in the city with total ease.

- Mountain: it is clear that to be able to ride without problems the Natural Parks of Montserrat and Montseny it is necessary to have a bike with thicker wheels and with a suspension that cushions the jumps. This is true if you are a great lover of adventure and adrenaline and can't wait to ride steep trails full of obstacles. For this reason, MTBs are your ideal choice, as they will allow you to immerse yourself inside the mountains and valleys; and pick up speed knowing that you will be safe at all times.

Who can ride a bike in Barcelona?

Well, anyone who knows how to do it! But as we don’t want anyone to miss out on excursions and get to know the best of this province, for the little ones who don’t yet have enough skills to learn to ride, you will find adapted cycles with a saddle so that your children can get on as long as they do not weigh more than 3 stone (22 kilos). On the other hand, in order to access the "Bicing" service in Barcelona, one of the mandatory requirements is that the user must be over 14 years old.

Surely you have already found the perfect option to tour Barcelona while activating your body and pedaling, so you just need to get closer to the province and start enjoying. We are waiting for you!
