Al-Ándalus: Granada to the sea
A day in Granada and the gardens of the Alhambra, then two deserts: Gorafe, a little-known world of ravines and badlands, and Tabernas, the setting of the spaghetti westerns. We cross the Sierra Alhamilla, ride Cabo de Gata and finish in Almería. Six stages, about 420 km, nights in hotels, seaside hostels, a rural house and a cave house.
Mallorca Gravel: the island between places
A full loop of the island from Palma on gravel, forest tracks and rural lanes that rarely appear on cycling maps: Santanyí, Artà, Formentor and the Serra de Tramuntana, with Sa Calobra on the hardest day. Six stages and about 444 km in May.
País Vasco: gravel, food and the Orbea Gravel Aiaraldea
From Bilbao to Vitoria-Gasteiz, Rioja Alavesa, Navarre and San Sebastián, with nights in Laguardia and Mundaka, long dinners and wines from the coast to Rioja. Six demanding stages, about 563 km, plus a day riding the Orbea Gravel Aiaraldea, entry included.
Which one is for me?
- Your first trip with us: Mallorca Gravel, rated medium, with three gentle stages before the Tramuntana.
- Wild landscapes and history: Al-Ándalus, deserts, ravines and the sea, rated medium-high.
- Food, wine and big days in the saddle: País Vasco, the most demanding of the three. You need very good fitness.
What riders say
5.0 67 reviews on GoogleLogistics in some countries are complicated for many reasons, but the organization of the Mongolia trip was impeccable. I think I'll rely on the same agency for other tours around the world.
I don't know any company that does this kind of trip better. The trip design, the time together, the planning: perfect. I've already done 5 trips with them. Oh, and the guides are a 10!
True adventure cycling. Going to places one would likely never go on one’s own, in a way that means facing real rather than contrived challenges, but with professionalism and support of the highest standard.
