Our 2020 Canary Islands Cycling Adventure
As an exciting alternative to our Mallorca adventures, we are pleased to offer up a breath-taking and challenging cycling experience in the Canary Islands of Lanzarote and Tenerife. Located off the southern coast of Morocco, the Canary Islands are well known for their great cycling weather, dramatic volcanic landscape, strong winds and challenging and exciting climbs. This is a cycling destination for all those seeking an adventure, amazing landscapes and an unforgettable cycling experience.
Our trip will offer you the following:
Two islands: Lanzarote and Tenerife over 10 days.
Lanzarote
Lanzarote has established itself as a popular winter cycling destination. Quiet, smooth roads lead through the island’s black volcanic landscape. Strong warm winds will feature in this experience. Our group riding skills will be tested.

Tenerife
This majestic volcanic island is home to the highest peak in Spain and is a primary destination for professional cyclists seeking altitude and mountain training while preparing for the grand tours. The highest peak is 2300m and one can easily climb 35km to the mountain top of Teide. The island offers spectacular scenery, friendly people, hard, but smooth, climbing and well-deserved happy-hours.

Other important points
We have engaged the services of Lanzarote Bike Tours (https://www.lanzarotebike.de/), to help deliver a worry-free, enjoyable cycling adventure. Together, we have everything lined up to provide rental bikes, ground transportation, on-the-road support vehicle and guiding services.
Cycling in the Canaries can be more challenging than Mallorca. For that reason, we are not recommending it for riders seeking relaxed riding.
- To really enjoy this trip, be fit and ready for all that comes.
- Hotels are all 4star ****
- We have hired guides but will always have Peter and John to optimize the group riding experience
- The spring weather is consistently sunny and warm but as always with climbs, be prepared for cooler temperatures at the top.
- Altitude affects people in different ways. Remember our day start at sea level and can take us up to 2300m. Pack a sense of adventure and humour. This is going to be fun.
