About Cycling in the Canary Islands

Blessed with volcanic landscapes, Atlantic breezes, and year-round warm weather, the Canary Islands offer a cycling environment unlike anywhere else in Spain. Each island brings its own identity, from lava-shaped terrain to lush northern valleys and sun-drenched southern coasts.

For cyclists, the archipelago delivers remarkable variety and elevation. Gentle coastal stretches unfold beside turquoise waters, while the steep, winding roads of Tenerife’s Teide National Park or Gran Canaria’s mountainous interior provide challenging, high-altitude ascents for experienced riders.

Routes weave through quiet seaside villages, terraced farmlands, and volcanic formations that feel almost lunar. Inland climbs often pass through protected natural areas such as Garajonay National Park on La Gomera or the dramatic cliffs surrounding Roque Nublo, offering both scenic viewpoints and technical riding.

A fusion of island culture and nature defines the experience. Traditional fishing towns, lively markets, and historic quarters like La Laguna highlight centuries of Atlantic trade and migration. Along the way, cyclists often sample local dishes such as papas arrugadas, fresh seafood, and the region’s distinctive mojo sauces.

Whether you’re seeking leisurely coastal rides with stable weather, moderate island-to-island cycling routes, or a serious climbing challenge on some of Europe’s longest continuous ascents, the Canary Islands provide it all.

With predictable sunshine, dramatic terrain, and well-maintained roads, the archipelago guarantees a memorable and truly unique cycling experience.

Great holiday. Really easy to follow routes, good choice of hotels and the en route places to eat and visit was really helpful. Super responsive to questions during my holiday. Would definitely use them again.

Self-guided cycling through Andalucia was an amazing adventure! The detailed route notes guided me through dramatic landscapes, past olive groves, and into whitewashed villages like Ronda. I loved the flexibility to explore Granada’s Alhambra and other cultural highlights at my own pace. The accommodations were authentic and welcoming, and knowing my luggage was always waiting for me made it stress-free. The mix of scenic routes and cultural immersion made this trip unforgettable—I’d highly recommend it to independent cyclists!

My self-guided cycling holiday in Mallorca was the perfect way to experience this incredible island. The routes included stunning coastal roads, peaceful inland villages, and iconic climbs like Sa Calobra. The provided GPS and maps made navigating easy, and I appreciated the freedom to linger at scenic spots or enjoy a long lunch overlooking the sea. The accommodations were fantastic, and luggage transfers meant I could focus on the ride. This trip was everything I hoped for and more.
