After visiting Tarragona, we decided to spend the night on our way south. Being a cyclist, I had already prepared myself and found a B&B in Villanova d'Escornalbou. Middle of nowhere, car is not allowed in the village and very local. Delicious and natural centre of various rounds with delicious mountains. My wife is not into long, tough climbs so a circuit around the Castell is perfect anyway! The climb is beautiful, varied and also challenging. The devil is in the tail and that makes it an instant hit. Very nice to cycle here, people are friendly, everyone greets each other and cars keep their distance. The routes are varied and some descents are like a wonderful French ski slope to enjoy the curves. Highly recommended without monster climbs

Na een bezoek aan Tarragona besloten we te overnachten op weg naar het zuiden. Als fietser had ik me al voorbereid en vond ik in Villanova d'Escornalbou een B&B. Middel of nowhere, auto mag niet in het dorp staan en heel lokaal. Heerlijk en natuurlijk middelpunt van diverse rondjes met heerlijke bergjes. Mijn vrouw is niet van de lange, zware beklimmingen dus een rondje om het Castell is perfect toch! De klim erheen is mooi, afwisselend en ook uitdagend. Het venijn zit m in de staart en dat maakt hem meteen een knaller. Erg leuk om heir te fietsen, mensen zijn vriendelijk, iedereen groet elkaar en auto's houden afstand. De routes zijn afwisselend en sommige afdalingen zijn net een heerlijke Franse skipiste om lekker door de bochten te zoeven. Een aanrader zonder monster beklimmingen
