Ruta Trabucaires - montaña y costa

The Trail of Outlaws is a border-crossing Catalonia Trail, between France and Spain, from the peaks of the High Pyrenees to the Mediterranean. This 160 km trail leads us to a diverse and wild landscape. It is a challenging ride for experienced trail-riders.

History:

The Catalan Pyrenees along the French-Spanish border used to be the refuge for legendary bands of outlaws, the so-called ‘Trabucaires’. The ‘Trabuc’ is a firearm with a trumpet-shaped muzzle. It is a dangerous and very effective weapon that was loaded with powder and tiny pieces of iron. The bandits using this gun were called Trabucaires.
