What to expect
You'll start with a briefing on your bike and helmet, then ride along the waterfront before heading inland into Poble Nou. The pace is leisurely—this isn't a fitness test but a curated wander on two wheels. Your guide will stop regularly at key murals, explaining the artists' backgrounds and what each piece represents within the neighbourhood's evolution. Expect narrow streets, some cobblestones, and a mix of established works alongside newer installations. The ride covers relatively flat terrain, making it accessible whether you cycle regularly or rarely.
