Top 5 Highlights of Cycling in Spain

Camino de Santiago: The Camino de Santiago, also known as The Way of Saint James, is a world-famous pilgrimage route and one of the oldest in the world. Spanning across Europe, this iconic trail is made up of a vast network of ancient routes that lead you among stunning landscapes and historical landmark on this revered spiritual journey. The pilgrimage culminates in Santiago de Compostela at the holy cathedral and resting place of St James.

Girona: Situated in Catalonia, Girona is a soulful city that has become a popular destination for cyclists. With its striking medieval architecture, tranquil countryside lanes and fabulous Pyrenean backdrop, Girona offers a perfect setting for both leisurely and more challenging rides. Cycle along disused railway lines that run between ancient villages, follow scenic coastal paths and discover the local culture and history as you visit local wine estates and traditional towns.

Catalan Coast: The stunning Catalan coastline plays host to a diverse blend of dramatic scenery, charming coastal towns and challenging terrains. Discover the sun-kissed beaches of the Costa Brava, explore Calella de Palafrugell and stop off at vibrant villages to taste the delicious seafood and local wines. At Púbol, learn about the region’s fascinating history and the famous Spanish artist, Salvador Dali.

Wine villages: As well as its beautiful coastal landscapes and golden beaches, Spain is famous for its delicious wines, and what better way to explore the country’s rich viticulture than by cycling through its wine villages? Regions like Rioja, Catalonia and Andalucia offer pretty routes that wind through lush vineyards and wine villages, interspersed with wineries where you can sample some of the finest Spanish wines.

Castles: Spanish history is replete with majestic castles, and many of these can be visited during our cycling holidays in Spain. From the medieval hilltop castle of Begur and the 13th-century Montgri castle to the 18th-century Sant Ferran Castle at Figueres, cycling among these ancient fortresses allows you to step back in time and immerse yourself in the country’s intriguing history.

Sardinia is a beautiful island and the south west part where we were is different from other parts of the island – secluded, no celebrities, great mix of beach and nature, and genuine Sardinian food. We had two guides, both were excellent. The tour was well organised, everyone was kept together and safety felt like a priority. I like that they organised snacks and drinks for our stops, including electrolyte drinks! Negatives – we feel this tour doesn’t offer value for money. Pro rata it is one of the most expensive cycling tours in Europe but the accommodation quality was low. Only two working ACs, showers were old and with weak water pressure. When we all arrived, some hotels didn’t have enough hot water so people who went for the shower late ended up having a cold shower. For one hotel where there was no working AC (muma hostel), we were told it was too late at night to call the electrician but they would repair it the next morning (but we were only there for one night!). Later our group leader told us that the AC in that particular room had not been working for the last 2 weeks. There was no offer to move us to a different room. We didn’t appreciate being lied to and will leave a review about this on the hotel’s website. Also note that the support van was small and filled with our bags so there’s only 1-2 spaces for people to sit if anyone decides not to do the hill climb. Though with the e-bikes I think this probably won’t be much of a problem.

When is the best time to go cycling in Spain?

The best months for cycling tours in Spain will vary depending on where you’re visiting. Generally, spring (April to June) and autumn (September to November) provide ideal weather conditions due to the milder temperatures and quieter roads. During these seasons, the landscapes of Mallorca, Catalonia and Andalucia are still awash with colour, and you can enjoy more comfortable cycling conditions. It’s best to avoid cycling holidays in Spain during July and August as the temperatures can soar.

Do I have to be an experienced cyclist for cycling holidays in Spain?

At Exodus, we have a range of cycling tours in Spain to suit various levels of ability. For each of our tours you’ll find an activity level which has been carefully graded depending on the duration of the rides, the types of tracks and roads and challenging inclines. While you will need a certain level of fitness for our trips, we also offer e-bike hire, which will allow you much more flexibility. You can read our Activity Level Guidelines for more information about our trip gradings.
