Not a ton of experience biking in the region, but I rode from Barcelona to Montserrat and it is quite lovely. There are a few sections where you're on a road busier with cars than one would like, but I've found Spanish drivers to be fairly respectful of bikers*. It was about 3.5h there, 2.5h back, with a nice 600m climb up the mountain at the end of the trip. The views up there are simply stunning.

* Fun story, I rode 1500 miles throughout Spain ~10 years ago, and had not a single bad experience with a motorist. When I got back to my home in NY state, literally on my first bike ride back, within 2 miles of my starting point, a man in a truck threw a beer can at me.

Such things are very regional yeah. I live in Spain and there drivers are respectful because cyclists have nowhere else to go.

In the Netherlands where I'm from we frown on cyclists on the road because there's excellent cycle lanes they should be using. The problem is the "sporty" types that think they're too good for those and use the main road instead.
