Andalusia Cycling Holidays

Known for its Moorish heritage, flamenco rhythms, and delectable cuisine, this southern jewel of Spain is a vibrant mosaic of traditions and landscapes.

For cyclists, Andalusia is a land of unparalleled variety and challenge. From the gentle, rolling plains near Antequera to the exhilarating mountain passes of the Sierra de Grazalema, there is a route to suit every rider.

Coastal trails along the Mediterranean offer scenic and relaxed rides, while inland routes lead to dramatic climbs and thrilling descents, such as those in the Sierra de las Nieves or the challenging gradients of Puerto del Viento and Puerto de las Palomas.

Here, you’ll pass through quiet villages and bustling towns like Ronda perched above dramatic gorges while pedaling on routes that often wind through protected areas like the Sierra de las Nieves, a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve.

A convergence of culture and nature, Andalusia’s Moorish heritage is evident in the iconic Alhambra of Granada, the Alcázar of Seville, and the labyrinthine streets of its whitewashed villages. Along your journey, you might pause to enjoy a flamenco performance, visit a centuries-old winery, or savor Andalusian delicacies such as salmorejo and gazpacho.

Whether you’re seeking a leisurely cycling holiday along quiet backroads, moderate routes through rolling countryside, or a road cycling challenge, Andalusia offers it all.

Its year-round sunshine, varied landscapes, and well-maintained trails ensure an unforgettable cycling experience.
