The 1st Edition of the Món San Benet Cycle is here

On April 13, 2025 , cycling enthusiasts have an unmissable date at the first edition of CICLO Món Sant Benet , a cycling tour that promises to combine sport, nature, and culture in an incomparable setting. Organized by Món Sant Benet, a facility of the Fundació Catalunya La Pedrera, in collaboration with the Sant Fruitós de Bages Town Council , this initiative offers participants the opportunity to explore scenic routes with the majestic landscape of Món Sant Benet and the Montserrat mountain as a backdrop.

Two Routes for Different Levels

CICLO Món Sant Benet has designed two circular routes to suit different levels of experience and physical condition:

• Moderate Route: With a length of 87,6 km, this route passes by emblematic points such as the Vilafruns mines, the church of Santa Creu del Mujal, the Collet dels Plans and the Collet de la Portella. It is ideal for cyclists looking for a moderate challenge while enjoying historical and natural landscapes.
• Challenging Route: Designed for the more adventurous, this more challenging route takes participants past Font de Montmajor, the church of Santa Maria de Merlès and Coll de l'Arç, among other places of interest. It offers a longer route with a greater gradient, perfect for those looking to test their limits.

Services Included in Registration

Registration for the march includes a series of benefits to guarantee an optimal experience:

• Three refreshment points to replenish energy during the route.
• Official jersey from the renowned Gobik brand, which combines design and quality.
• Technical assistance provided by RACC Hola Bici, ensuring support in case of mechanical incidents.
• Bicycle storage and cloakroom service for the convenience of participants.
• At the end of the ride, cyclists will be able to enjoy a delicious dish of rice typical of Sant Fruitós de Bages, a perfect way to end the day.

The event has the support of official sponsors such as Alpha Publicidad Exterior, RACC Hola Bici, Gobik and Mundo Deportivo, who contribute to the realization of this unique experience.
