Description
Cruz Grande Mountainbike Tour Gran Canaria
Technically demanding and visually impressive. Gran Canaria: rocky paths and rock gardens, dense pine forests, steep cliffs, impressive natural monuments, flowy trails. This guided mountain bike tour leads through Cruz Grande to San Bartolomé. Here you have some time for a coffee and a piece of the famous “Tarta de Santiago” or other goodies. Strengthened you go off to Fataga through the valley of the 1000 palm trees. After a few climbs on the tarmac you will be rewarded with a break in the shade of giant ficus trees in the village square of Fataga. The last challenging section of this tour takes you on a dusty trail from Yeguas back to Playa del Inglés.

Michael –
Package including pick up from hotel / apartment, shuttle to the start of the route, guided tour on a good selection of trails with road sections kept to a minimum, and then back to the shop and then hotel. Sandwich for lunch was also included. Guides were friendly and knowledgeable.
Andrea –
I did a few MTB tours and they are not simple! A bit demanding and rather not suitable for a normal city cyclist. The boss ensures that there are always quite new models, consequently the quality – unbeatable!
Eliane –
The bikes (Cannondale Scalpel) were 2018 models in perfect condition and the tours were great 🙂 outstanding bike guides! They know every turn, every stone and every uphill on their tours and they glorified our days with glorious views and humor. We are already looking forward to next year!
