THE ITINERARY
The starting point will be Cornudella de Montsant, a town in the north of the Priorat, surrounded by the Serra de Montsant on one side and the Gritella and Siurana on the other.
After receiving the briefing and the delivery of all the necessary material to undertake this fantastic route, you will start the itinerary in the direction of La Morera del Montsant, a town located right at the foot of Montsant where the views of the vertical walls of the massif are impressive, and later you will descend towards Vilella Baixa, also known as the New York of the Priorat due to its vertiginous buildings of considerable height.
After enjoying these views, you will continue towards Bellmunt del Priorat, with its historic mines, until you reach the capital, Falset (km 58.60). It will be at this point where there will be a stop and an inn to regain strength and resume the route between leafy forests and historic vineyards.
Little by little, between ascents and descents, you will cycle on technical trails through Gratallops, Torroja del Priorat, Vilella Alta, Escaladei (where we find the old and historic Cartoixa), Poboleda and finally, Cornudella de Montsant, where you will finish the route
