• What makes Spain a great destination for a bike tour?

  Spain is a dream destination for a bike tour, blending vibrant culture, dramatic scenery, and a deep feeling of history into every route.

  Expect variety in every bike ride – from the rolling vineyards of La Rioja to the greenways of inland Spain and the legendary Camino de Santiago, a centuries-old pilgrimage passage that’s now one of Europe’s most inspiring cycling routes.

  In Spain, you’ll find peaceful countryside offering leisurely bike rides or more mountainous routes for thrill seekers. A bike tour here promises extensive cycling infrastructure, welcoming locals, stunning beaches, and evenings spent in the warm glow of tapas bars and plaza restaurants, sampling the country’s irresistible food and wine.

• When is the best time to take a bike tour in Spain?

  The best time to take a bike tour in Spain depends a little on which region you’re traveling to, but in general, ideal cycling conditions are from March to June and September to October. In Northern Spain (Galicia, Catalonia, Cantabria, and the Basque Country), late spring to early autumn is ideal. For Southern Spain (Andalusia, Costa del Sol), consider traveling in late autumn to early spring.

• Are Spain bike tours suitable for beginners?

  Cycling in Spain is accessible for riders of all abilities and skill levels. The country is known for its greenways – former railway lines converted to bike paths – that offer gentle cycling through rolling countryside along flatter valley routes.

  For beginners, consider touring during the autumn and spring seasons, when milder temperatures offer more relaxed riding than in the peak summer months. Coastal and lowland regions will typically offer gentler cycling than mountain ranges like the Pyrenees.
