The Muntanyes de Prades is a Natural Area of Interest and forms a mountain range structured by the valleys of the rivers Siurana, Brugent and Glorieta, home to great biodiversity of flora and fauna.
Exploring the Muntanyes de Prades by bike lets us enjoy nature on the Costa Daurada to the full. The landscapes around us are rural, with an orography completely different from the coast and vegetation of Scots pine, holm oak and oak that confirm we are in a mountain area.
The route continues across the plain of the Alt Camp and the Tarragonès, and, surrounded by hazel and olive trees, we reach Tarragona to see its Roman remains (a UNESCO heritage site). We finish the route on a flat stretch along the coast of Altafulla, Torredembarra and Creixell.
This is without doubt a route that captures the whole essence of the Costa Daurada.
