Overview

Mountain bike biking holidays for riders of all abilities in Andalucia, southern Spain. Andalucia has a well deserved reputation for having some of the world’s best single track trails, technical down hills, free riding and cross-country mountain biking. From our mountain biking base in Ronda, the Serrania de Ronda, Sierra de Nieves and Grazalema Natural Park are all on our doorstep offering you a wide and varied selection of routes. During the week, Ashley who is a MTB instructor, will show you a few simple techniques that will get you riding more confidently. The coaching that you will receive is built into your daily riding. Those riders who take advantage of this free training, most will leave their Andalucian cycling experience riding drops offs and switchbacks, that at the beginning of the week you would have considered to difficult. We incorporate skills practices into your standard days mountain biking that develop braking technique, body positioning and balance on the bike. This often means that we will stop at sections of the trail that require a new level of skill for on-the-trail coaching. This informal training continues throughout your holiday, resulting in an improvement in your technical ability and, therefore, increasing your confidence. I have spent the last 18 years exploring this part of Spain and have put together a weeks worth of single track heaven of fast flowing trails combined with technical challenges to keep all levels of rider happy. The terrain is best described as dry and dusty, fast flowing with a fair few rocky sections and plenty of switchbacks thrown in. The trails we ride are empty, there are no queues and nothing is man made it’s all what mother nature has to offer!
