The experience

You operate the quad yourself, not a passenger, but the driver steering through Rosas' off-road network. The route climbs from the bay area inland toward Santa Margarita and the mountain of Rosas, then descends past the Canyelles Petites beach ledge with views back over the water. A live guide in Spanish or French rides ahead and sets the pace. The whole outing runs one hour. The vehicle is a new Polaris 2024 model, built for stability and control on uneven terrain.

Helmet and guide are included in the booking. You'll need closed shoes: sneakers or hiking boots work fine. The activity sits in the Girona region with easy access from nearby towns. Public transportation options are available if you're traveling without a car.

What’s included

• Polaris 2024 quad bike for the full hour.

Is this one for you?You operate the quad yourself the entire hour, so this suits riders who want hands-on control rather than a guided tour where someone else drives. The fixed one-hour route and live guide work well for first-time ATV riders or anyone who prefers a structured pace over self-guided exploration.
