Cycling in Andalusia - Olives and Palaces

Arrival in Andalusia and check-in at the hotel where you also receive your bike and cycling equipment if you have rented it. Relax by the pool and prepare for the week's cycling adventure.

Accommodation in Priego de Córdoba

Today you can choose between three different cycling tours in the area. All three routes take you through Priego de Cordoba and the Andalusian landscape with olive groves, typical white villages and historic Moorish watchtowers.

Accommodation in Priego de Córdoba

A day with slightly more challenging cycling. From Priego you cycle through Sierra Albayate. Then continue towards Montefrio, another beautiful whitewashed village with a Moorish castle in the center. Your next accommodation is a converted olive oil mill which reminds you of the importance of this liquid gold. 

Accommodation in Montefrio

Today is a rest day from cycling and an opportunity to visit Granada and the fascinating Alhambra - a prime example of Moorish architecture. Don't miss Granada's other gems, the narrow alleys of the Albaycin quarters, the tea houses or the impressive Capilla Real (royal chapel).

Accommodation in Montefrio

Jump back on the bike! The landscape is again carpeted with green-clad olive groves on gently rolling hills. Today's cycling is divided into a first flat section and a second slightly more challenging one. Save some energy for the final climbs.

Accommodation in Rute

Continue cycling in the beautiful Andalusian landscape. Then follow part of Via Verde, an old railway track now converted into an ideal cycling path. Your accommodation in Zuheros is well positioned for visiting Córdoba and Mezquita (book an extra night here in Zuheros if you wish).

Today's cycling tour is shorter, through the beautiful area surrounding Sierra Subbéticas national park. You return to your first comfortable accommodation in the countryside near Priego and can once again cool off in the pool after a week of cycling and experiences.
